By Alyssa Brouillet

DES MOINES, IOWA (June 24, 2024) — Iowa Attorney General Brenna Bird has made the case in a state district court to prevent TikTok from lying to parents about inappropriate videos on the app. AG Bird released the following statement:

“Parents deserve to know the truth about the dangers of TikTok. Today, we made our case in court to stop TikTok from lying to parents about the inappropriate videos that are recommended to kids on the app, including sexually explicit content, drug use, and self-harm. As a mom and prosecutor, I am committed to ensuring parents have the information they need to keep their kids safe online.”
