Ofcom has criticised TikTok and YouTube, saying in a new report their content feeds are "not safe enough" for children.
The findings follow the UK media regulator’s call for stronger action on children’s online safety in March, and said Meta, Snap and Roblox had each agreed to stronger anti-grooming measures since.
Ofcom added it would share concerns that sites were not effectively enforcing minimum age rules with the government, whose consultation on whether to ban social media for under-16s soon ends.
YouTube said it worked with child safety experts to provide "industry-leading, age-appropriate" experiences for children. TikTok said it was "very disappointing" Ofcom had failed to acknowledge its safety features.
