He wants civil penalties of as much as $10,000 per violation of Texas's Securing Children Online through Parental Empowerment Act.
This isn't the first time TikTok, which is owned by the Chinese technology firm ByteDance, has been sued over children's safety concerns in the U.S. The federal government sued the company with similar allegations back in August. In addition to that, the federal government is seeking to ban TikTok in the country due to alleged safety problems for American users.
In other words, enjoy TikTok while you can.
