ADDICTION CONCERNS: EU opens probe into TikTok Lite after US govt moves to ban app

The European Union (EU) has launched a second official investigation into TikTok Lite’s operations. This action comes after a more thorough investigation in February.

The EU claims that the well-known social media site, which is owned by Bytdance, is violating the Digital Services Act (DSA) in the area.

According to additional sources, the investigation focuses on TikTok Lite’s addictive qualities. TikTok Lite is a condensed version of the app that runs more slowly on weaker internet connections and requires less memory on smartphones.
