Senegal Bans TikTok, Seeks Regulation Deal

Senegalese authorities have refused to lift the ban on TikTok, a Chinese social media app, until the company signs an agreement that will allow the creation of the algorithm to delete accounts.

Also, Irish regulators have fined TikTok €345 million for violating children’s privacy.
