Instagram's head Adam Mosseri is set to testify in Los Angeles regarding allegations that the app's design promotes addiction and contributes to mental health issues among young users.

The EU Commission has mandated TikTok to alter its design to make the app less addictive, especially for children, threatening fines for non-compliance.

The European Commission has accused TikTok of employing addictive mechanisms and has raised concerns about its app design, which may lead to significant financial consequences for the platform in Europe.

The EU Commission has deemed TikTok's app design dangerous and acknowledges addiction risks, stating that the platform must comply with EU laws requiring major changes.

The European Commission has targeted TikTok, stating that the app's addictive design violates the European Digital Services Act and does not adequately protect users, according to preliminary findings.

The European Union has accused TikTok of violating digital rules by employing 'addictive design' features, such as autoplay and infinite scrolling, sparking a preliminary investigation into the app's operational model.

The EU Commission claims TikTok's addictive nature violates EU law, prompting the app to contest the decision and potentially alter its design features.

The EU Commission has found TikTok's app design potentially hazardous and in violation of European law, warning the company of significant penalties if changes are not made.

TikTok may be required to alter its design to reduce user addiction after the European Commission determined it violated the Digital Services Act.
