    TikTok will pay the state of Alabama at least $100 million and implement a slew of safety features for teens as part of a settlement agreement reached just before the case was set to go to trial. Alabama sued the social media company in 2025, claiming the platform had negative effects on the mental well-being of youths. In addition, the lawsuit argued that TikTok knew that its "addictive properties" were harmful to children.
