Virginia AG Wants to Let Parents Sue TikTok

Passing an anti-TikTok bill with a private right of action will be a priority for Virginia Attorney General Jason Miyares this legislative session, the Republican said Tuesday. Miyares supported a yet-to-be-numbered bill by Del. Jay Leftwich (R). The AG office said the bill would establish “a private cause of action for parents against TikTok’s deceptive practices and addresses concerns related to data privacy, child exploitation, and security threats.” Leftwich and TikTok didn’t comment.
