If they cared enough about the content that children are watching they would’ve done something about it. It’s all about money to them.

It’s unfortunate but social media does more harm than good. Because human beings are inherently greedy and less likely to do good for more than themselves, we are not responsible enough to have social media. In most cases social cancer for kids especially.

I agree she puts on one hell of a show, and seems like she’s getting him good… However her blatant disregard to let someone with English as their second language not even given time to answer properly, paints it in a slightly different light. I may agree with some of what she said but that isn’t to say I didn’t want hear what he had to say.

This isn’t a problem unique to tiktok, Facebook sold data and had CP for years, this is a social media issue not unique to tiktok

I wish that there was an app that was mandatory that could ban or limit these terrible apps from specific devices, instead of focusing on getting rid of the app as a whole. Screentime is way too easy to disable in less than a second. Phone/tablet companies will not make a better alternative on their own. They want people to be as addicted as possible. The government should step in here.

Lady, you should have been given the CEO chairman a chance to answer your questions, don’t just keep asking him too many questions. This is rude politicians. Unacceptable!

What’s the point of a hearing if we can’t hear the CEO of TikTok answer her questions? She just ask and if it’s not what she wants to hear then she moves on…

Lol that was probably some 9 year old kid that posted that. Such a scary threat! Glad they’re all safe! Phew!

The parents are also responsible…if you allow a child unlimited hours of unsupervised access to internet/phone applications, where all types of deviant and degenerate behavior is easily viewed, this is what can and will hapen sometimes…the parents are more to blame, than ANYONE

This woman clearly doesn’t understand how content moderation works. If the content isn’t reported and reviewed by a human or contains elements in the text that can be detected by machine learning for violative material. it is very unlikely this content will be immediately taken down. This happens across all platforms. If the people watching this have no issue seeing it and do not report it, it will take more time for the content to be on TikTok’s radar to even know that it exists in the first place to take it down. If anything this woman has made me side with TikTok more because she and the others clearly do not know how difficult it is for social media sites to be moderated.

The fact that they had info on a hearing that the American people didn’t even know about is truly scary.
