On October 29, it was reported that Brazilian consumer rights organizations had filed two lawsuits, accusing TikTok, Kwai International Kwai and Meta's Brazilian subsidiaries of not establishing a mechanism to prevent minors from abusing the community platform.
The Collective Defense Institute, a rights organization, has filed a lawsuit demanding that the aforementioned companies compensate 3 billion Brazilian reals (approximately 525 million US dollars). The organization requires these companies to establish clear data protection mechanisms and issue warnings about the mental health risks of children and adolescents addicted to the platform.
In response to the above allegations, Meta stated in a statement, "We hope that young people can have a safe and age appropriate experience on our app. For over 10 years, we have been working hard to address related issues and have developed over 50 tools, resources, and features to support teenagers and their caregivers. The company recently announced the launch of a new 'teenage account' on Instagram, which will soon be available in Brazil and will automatically limit the accounts that teenagers can see and the people they can contact
TikTok responded that the company has not received any notification regarding this case. Kwai stated in a statement that user safety is one of the company's top priorities, especially when it comes to minors. (Reuters)
