The Orissa High Court has said that the popular TikTok mobile app needs to be properly regulated as it often demonstrates a degrading culture and encourages pornography. TikTok has these days become much popular among many, mostly the youth. The young generation are posting nonsensical, explicit, disturbing videos to earn fame and yes, it’s helping them to some extent.
"Tik Tok mobile app which often demonstrates a degrading culture and encourage pornography besides paedophiles and explicit disturbing content, is required to be properly regulated so as to save the teens from its negative impact," observed Justice S.K. Panigrahi.
The observation of the High Court came on Thursday while disposing of a bail petition involving a suicide case in Sambalpur district.
The court said the appropriate government has the social responsibility to put some fair regulatory burden on those companies which are proliferating such applications.
