TikTok has announced that it’s expanding its audience controls feature, giving creators the ability to restrict their videos to adult viewers. Prior to this expansion, the adult-only audience controls feature was only available for TikTok Live. Now the company is bringing the feature to its short-form videos as well. “We’ve started to bring our audience controls feature to creators of short-form video and will expand the feature globally over the coming weeks,” TikTok wrote in a blog post. “To be clear: our policies still fully apply to creators who use this feature, and we will remove content which contains nudity and other violations of our Community Guidelines.” As is the case with adult-only livestreams on TikTok, the 18+ restriction setting for videos isn’t a way for creators to display adult content, as the content is still subject to the app’s policies. TikTok instead sees the setting as a way for creators to prevent minors from encountering content that’s aimed toward an adult audience or may be uninteresting to them. When TikTok rolled out adult-only livestreams, the company said the setting could be used for creators who want to share comedy content that is better suited for people above the age of 18. Or, creators may want to talk about a difficult life experience and would feel more comfortable knowing the conversation is limited to adults. The expansion of the audience controls setting comes as TikTok previously said it wanted to start identifying which content is appropriate for younger and older teens versus adults. TikTok had said it was developing a system to identify and restrict certain types of content from being accessed by teens and that it would start asking creators to specify when their content is more appropriate for an adult audience. We are now seeing this in practice with the app’s audience controls feature. TikTok has also announced that it’s launching the next iteration of its borderline suggestive model, which automatically identifies sexually explicit, suggestive or borderline content. The next iteration of TikTok’s borderline suggestive model is expected to be better at detecting such content. These announcements are part of TikTok’s broader push toward ramping up safety features for teens on its app. Last year, TikTok rolled out Content Levels to prevent certain content with more mature or complex themes from reaching teens. As part of these efforts, TikTok says it has prevented teen accounts from viewing over 1 million overtly sexually suggestive videos in the last 30 days alone. Child and teen safety is an area where TikTok has faced significant scrutiny, not only from regulators and lawmakers, but also from parents. For instance, last year a group of parents sued TikTok after their children died after attempting dangerous challenges they allegedly saw on TikTok.

Does Google tell you when someone tries to log into your account?

For example, Google might notice a sign-in attempt that doesn't match a user's normal behavior. Usually, before Google sends you an alert, Google presents the user with an extra security question or challenge. If the user fails or abandons the challenge, the Google sends you the alert.

If you’re using a personal Google Account, you can investigate suspicious activity on your account. As a Google Workspace administrator, you can use email alerts to notify you if there’s suspicious sign-in activity for your users. For example, Google might notice a sign-in attempt that doesn’t match a user’s normal behavior. Usually, before Google sends you an alert, Google presents the user with an extra security question or challenge. If the user fails or abandons the challenge, the Google sends you the alert. The alert warns you that someone has the suspended user's password. For more information, go to Administrator email alerts.

Examples of suspicious logins

A user doesn't follow their usual sign-in pattern, such as a signing in from an unusual location.

There was a successful sign-in from a suspended user's account.

Note: You might also get an alert if a suspicious event occurs when a user is using Mail Fetcher to import mail from another Gmail account, because the messages are being fetched through Google servers.

Investigate suspicious login activity

Ask the user with the suspicious login if they remember signing in. They can check their last account activity if they're unsure. If you can't establish the legitimacy of the sign-in, follow the Administrator security checklist. Reset the password of any account with suspicious activity. Note: Google Workspace Support can’t investigate alerts that originate from suspicious login activity, because user activity logs are sensitive and potentially private.

Stop incorrect suspicious login activity alerts

If you find that a suspicious login activity is actually a legitimate sign-in by a user, we recommend enrolling that user in 2-Step Verification. To reduce these alerts for your organization, consider enrolling all of your users in 2-Step Verification.
