TikTok exec on algorithms, keeping kids safe

Key Facts

Michael Beckerman, TikTok's head of public policy for North America, told "CBS Mornings" the app has "tools in place" that can help moderate how long users spend on the app and what they see.
But like all entertainment, you want to watch with moderation, and we put tools in place, take-a-break video, screen time management, and tools for parents like family pairing to make sure that they can have conversations and do what's right for their family and their teenagers," Beckerman said.
Beckerman said there is an additional experience for users under the age of 13 which has additional privacy and safety protections designed specifically for this audience.
The videos are curated with common sense networks, and we want to have a fun experience for everybody," said Beckerman.
