WASHINGTON, United States (AFP) — TikTok on Friday agreed to pay Alabama at least $100 million and enact limits for teen users, avoiding a trial set to begin next week in the southern US state over claims related to child safety on the platform.
“Under the settlement, Alabama will receive a minimum oSuref $100 million, due to the state within 45 days, with the potential to receive up to $300 million if certain conditions are met,” the office of the Attorney General Steve Marshall said.
The trial had been set to begin on Monday with jury selection.
