The TikTok Effect
What connects amateur sleuths turning up at crime scenes, antisocial behaviour in UK schools and French riots? This film finds evidence they are all examples of TikTok 'frenzies'.
What connects amateur sleuths turning up at crime scenes, anti-social behaviour in UK schools and riots in France? The answer, according to a Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ investigation, is that they are all examples of a TikTok 'frenzy'.
Marianna Spring, the Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ’s disinformation correspondent, has spent the last year investigating harmful behaviour on TikTok spilling out into the real-world. She tracks down users, victims and former employees to expose how extremely high engagement on TikTok around some topics appears to be creating these 'frenzies' linked to behaviour previously seen as unacceptable.
