Several families have filed a lawsuit against TikTok, alleging that the social media platform’s algorithm promotes content that has driven adolescents to suicide. One poignant case is that of Marie, a 15-year-old who faced bullying and shared her struggles on TikTok before being inundated with depressive content. Her mother claims that TikTok’s recommendations, which included videos about self-harm and suicide, contributed to her daughter’s tragic decision to take her life. TikTok states it employs over 600 experts to monitor harmful content on its site.
