The US Federal Trade Commission (FTC) is considering taking legal action against TikTok following a privacy probe, according to a source familiar with the matter. The popular social media platform has come under scrutiny for its data collection and privacy practices, prompting the FTC to investigate.
The FTC could potentially bring a lawsuit against TikTok or negotiate a settlement to address concerns related to user privacy. This decision comes as the US government continues to focus on regulating tech companies and protecting consumer data.
