KY P.40, PARA 125 [REDACTED BUT RETRIEVABLE TEXT]

The ‘TikTank’ [internal TikTok group studying issues affecting TikTok] Report observed that “Tiktok is particularly popular with younger users who are particularly sensitive to reinforcement in the form of social reward and have minimal ability to self-regulate effectively.”

Well, they are targeting young users because it’s a biological fact that they can’t control themselves very well, meaning that their brains are not fully developed yet. This is like making profits from people with diabetes by selling expensive insulin; if they don’t get it, they die.

TikTok should answer legally by its actions, as well as other industries.
