This is disturbing to say the least, especially because TikTok's algorithm is highly responsive to your individual preferences. I tried it out for a bit because my kid was on it, and I literally only got forklift, train and truck videos after awhile.
- Sakos 4y agoThat's the point though. TikTok is extremely responsive and exploratory. You got forklift, train and truck videos. Full disclosure, I primarily got pretty women who were clearly of age being sexually suggestive or dancing, because, well, I'm a sucker for pretty women. Which is why it was jarring whenever I'd get videos of people who were clearly young girls and I'd check their profile or the comments for their age. With the above post, I recognize how TikTok was probing my interests and I see how that algorithm is far more problematic than people here are willing to admit.
