US lawmakers call on TikTok to add age verification.

Let me see some ID: age verification is spreading across the internet Reps. Josh Gottheimer (D-NJ), Elise Stefanik (R-NY), and Tom Suozzi (D-NY) have written a letter to TikTok USDS CEO Adam Presser, urging the platform to estimate users’ age using their account activity or require parents to confirm their child’s age. The lawmakers also suggest that TikTok works with OS-makers like Apple and Google to implement age verification: For example, if a user is designated as a child in their iCloud account, meaning they are under 13, Apple could share that information with TikTok and the user therefore would not be able to create a TikTok account. Correction, April 22nd: The name is Josh Gottheimer, not John. Posts from this author will be added to your daily email digest and your homepage feed.
