    A U.S. appeals court has reinstated a lawsuit by the mother of a 10-year-old Pennsylvania girl who tragically died attempting a viral challenge on TikTok. This case, initially dismissed due to Section 230 of the Communications Decency Act—which protects internet companies from liability for user-posted content—has been sent back to a lower court for trial. This decision signals a potential shift in how social media platforms like TikTok could be regulated, emphasizing the need for stronger content audits and safety measures to protect users, particularly minors. Reporters Iydia Ding and Rebecca Xu explore critical questions about the balance between user safety and freedom of speech.
