TIKTOK continues to promote a safe and positive app experience for its users through another safety update; this time, protecting the younger members of its community. The latest update limits the ways that users can interact with children on TikTok, protecting them against potential predators and groomers, bringing tightened privacy settings for children's accounts, limiting the ways that users can interact with them on the app.

This added layer of security for under-16 TikTok accounts serves as a way to safeguard children against online crimes such as child sexual exploitation, which is a growing problem, faced by internet users today.
