Tiktok is working on new ways to classify their contents and restrict them to certain hearings according to their characteristics and thematic, with the aim that minors have higher restrictions on the consumption of videos aimed at adult users.
The application seeks to filter and organize the videos based on the most comfortable “content maturity and thematic areas” for users, as indicated by the Tiktok emission policies, Tracy Elizabeth.
The directive indicated that once this classification system has been launched, the contents that have been ideated as being of adult thematic may be restricted to users according to their age to prevent adolescents from accessing harmful information.
On the contrary, for those contents that are of “less mature” issues or of open consumption and not specifically intended to adults, users of the platform may decide whether to visualize them or omit them.
Elizabeth added that the goal is to offer the possibility to the users of choosing “the category with which they feel more comfortable” and, although it has only commented that it is a “innovation phase” system, it could seem to a Classification similar to that used in movies or videogames.
