EU Demands TikTok Lite Risk Assessment

The European Commission tasks TikTok with providing a risk assessment on its new app TikTok Lite amid concerns oveThe European Commission has swiftly responded to the launch of TikTok Lite in France and Spain, requesting TikTok to conduct a risk assessment within 24 hours. This action, led by EU industry chief Thierry Breton, is part of the ongoing investigation into TikTok’s compliance with the Digital Services Act (DSA). The DSA mandates companies like TikTok to address illegal and harmful content on their platforms, with potential fines of up to 6% of their global annual turnover for violations. Concerns have been raised about the potential impact of TikTok Lite, particularly its “Task and Reward Lite” program, on the protection of minors and users’ mental health, with questions raised about addictive behavior stimulation akin to “light” cigarettes’ impact.

TikTok Lite, catering to users aged 18+, incentivizes engagement through a reward program allowing users to earn points for various platform activities, redeemable for rewards such as Amazon vouchers, gift cards, or TikTok’s own coins currency. The Commission has set a deadline of April 26 for TikTok to provide the requested risk assessment and additional information, after which it will evaluate TikTok’s response and consider further actions.r its impact on children and mental health. TikTok has 24 hours to comply under EU tech rules known as the Digital Services Act (DSA).
