And Tiktok raising the minimum age of live streaming from
16 to 18 years old. The change, coming
after hundreds of Syrian refugee accounts owned by Children were
streaming live on the app asking for help and donations
. Well, some refugees were receiving up to$1,000
an hour, but when they withdrew the donations,
Tiktok had taken up to 70% of the money,
so Tiktok says only adults will be able to send
virtual gifts, and in the coming weeks that plans
to allow users to run adults only live streams.
Now, the streaming app hasn't commented on how age
restrictions will be enforced.
