Danger on social media

According to Qustodio’s Annual Data Report, young people spend an average of 75 minutes per day on TikTok.

It wouldn’t sound bad if they only viewed age-appropriate content, but the reality is different because there are no restrictions.

This is where hashtags come in. They are used to find specific types of content on TikTok and other social media platforms, and some can lead to adult sites.

Eduardo Cruz, CEO of Qustodio, stated that one way to prevent the misuse of social media is through digital education.
