Interesting to note here: getting preteens to confusedly call Congress with threats of self harm and questions like "what is Congress" with a push notification is not the best plan

I've never used TikTok and probably never will, but I still don't think it's the government's job to decide what apps I'm allowed to use and what not. Educate people about the dangers of social media and if that doesn't work then it's out of your hands.

Do you also think the same about alcohol, tobacco, drugs and gambling?

Yes. See my other reply.
