CW: Objectionable Content
A TikTok moderator has filed a workers' compensation suit in California accusing the company of failing to take steps to protect her mental health as she viewed hours of traumatic videos.
Every day, TikTok users upload millions of videos to its platform. Many of these uploads include graphic and objectionable content including child sexual abuse, rape, torture, bestiality, and murder. The app relies on people like Candie Frazier, the plaintiff who filed suit, to view those videos and remove any that violate the corporation's terms of use in order to maintain a sanitized platform.
