Indian government requests Apple remove TikTok from App Store over child safety fears

All indications are that the free availability of porn ever since the explosion of the internet and deterioration of women safety have been parallel trends across the world. Are these related? maybe there should be some studies around it. -
Indian government requests Apple remove TikTok from App Store over child safety fears

Going down a path trying to get companies to remove apps (either by social or government pressure) and force one persons morality down the throat of another’s is, not only fool hardy, but dangerous.
I don't think any parent would be 'culturally inclined' to that.
The app says age "12+" and will pass through parental controls, but the content is obviously not meant for 12yr olds.
It can't be only the responsibility of the parents, there needs to be a way for the parents to know what is the content on the app. An app can't say it is showing cat videos and slip a few nude videos in!! How will the parent know? Should each parent curate all the videos on TikTok? Or should we ban children from accessing any app that shows videos? Your comment suggests the app maker, the app store and the government can basically wash their hands off any responsibility.
