TikTok’s infinite scroll is too addictive, say EU regulators

The European Commission has declared that TikTok’s 'addictive design' may violate the Digital Services Act (DSA). Regulators have particularly criticized TikTok’s infinite scroll, autoplay, push notifications, and personalized recommender system, suggesting these features could harm users’ physical and mental wellbeing. If confirmed, TikTok could face significant fines and be required to change its app design to comply with the law.
