Brussels targets TikTok's scroll trap with landmark DSA case: European Commission charges TikTok with DSA violations over infinite scroll, autoplay and push notifications that fuel compulsive behavior among minors and vulnerable users. https://ppc.land/brussels-targets-tiktoks-scroll-trap-with-landmark-dsa-case/ #Brussels #TikTok #DigitalServicesAct #SocialMediaSafety #OnlinePrivacy
James House-Lantto (He/Him)The European Commission has issued a preliminary ruling that TikTok’s design likely violates the EU’s Digital Services Act, citing features such as infinite scroll and constant content rewards that encourage compulsive use. Regulators say these mechanisms can negatively affect user wellbeing, particularly for children and vulnerable users. TikTok disputes the findings and says it will challenge the decision.

𝕯𝖎𝖓𝖊𝖘𝖍 🇮🇳Ex-Facebook Safety Exec: Testifies to Congress about Online Harms to Teenagers on Social Media
Arturo Bejar a former senior leader in charge of safety and care at Facebook (2009–2015) and later a consultant for Instagram (2019–2021), testified before US Congress that social media companies misrepresent and ignore the widespread harm, particularly to children.
In his testimony, Bejar reported that internal research indicated that 13% of 13–15 year-old users self-reported receiving unwanted sexual advances within a single seven-day period, a level of abuse he called "likely the largest-scale sexual harassment of teens to have ever happened".
He explained that since social media companies are data-guided and treat problems that aren't measured as if they "don't exist," most user distress goes unaddressed.
Bejar advocates for regulation—mandating companies to track and publicly report concrete safety metrics—which will push social media platforms to genuinely prioritize user protection over engagement and growth.
