Fitech CEO Ian Marlow was interviewed to comment on TikTok’s new security policies for users aged 13-15. As quoted in the USA Today article by Coral Murphy, he states,
“These changes may translate to a drop in users in those age brackets due to a potential lower viewership since they will not be able to have their accounts suggested to others and a reduced volume of comments will be shown.”
But while the efforts are clearly made in order to protect TikTok’s young users, Ian says,
“Ensuring that ages are accurate for users going forward will be critical to getting the value from these new security policies.”
