In September 2024, the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) published a report that summarised responses from nine companies, including ByteDance, to inquiries made under Section 6(b) of the Federal Trade Commission Act of 1914. The report investigated user and non-user data collection practices, particularly focusing on data related to children and teenagers. It concluded that the data practices of these companies rendered individuals susceptible to risks such as identity theft, stalking, unlawful discrimination, emotional distress, mental health issues, social stigma, and reputational harm. | In September 2024, the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) published a report that summarised responses from nine companies, including ByteDance, to inquiries made under Section 6(b) of the Federal Trade Commission Act of 1914.
