TikTok is rolling out fact-checking features called TikTok Footnotes, similar to X's Community Notes, starting in the US. This aims to combat misinformation on the platform. Additionally, TikTok is introducing enhanced parental controls to provide greater oversight of teen usage, including content consumption and uploads. These changes reflect growing pressure on social media companies to address harmful content and protect younger users.
