TikTok faces preliminary EU finding over For You feed 'rabbit holes'
The case targets how TikTok assesses recommendation risks and safeguards users, rather than requiring removal of particular videos.
TLDR
TikTok’s For You feed faces preliminary Digital Services Act findings over alleged failures to assess and address harmful recommendation loops. The case concerns repeated exposure to sensitive subjects, including mental health and body image. Regulators want stronger user controls and more weight on explicit preferences. TikTok can challenge the findings; a fine of up to 6% of worldwide annual turnover is possible if violations are confirmed.
