The European Commission has accused TikTok of violating EU online platform regulations due to its recommendation algorithms that lead users into harmful content loops. This marks the first focus on social media recommendation systems under the Digital Services Act. Preliminary findings indicate TikTok's algorithms promote similar content, potentially affecting mental health. Despite previous accusations, TikTok has not faced fines yet. The Commission emphasizes that TikTok's measures to mitigate these risks have been ineffective, urging the platform to prioritize explicit user feedback over indirect engagement metrics. TikTok can respond to the findings and propose solutions to avoid penalties.
