What happened
The European Commission has formally accused TikTok of failing to stop its recommendation algorithm from drawing users into repetitive feeds of content on sadness, self-harm and body image. The article gives no CVE, technical detail or remediation timeline, and it reports an accusation rather than a concluded enforcement decision. Trust and safety and platform risk teams should track the outcome as a precedent for algorithmic harm enforcement.
