TikTok's new set of safety videos teach users about features, the app's focus on 'positivity'

TikTok today released a new set of safety videos designed to playfully inform users about the app's privacy controls and other features -- like how to filter comments or report inappropriate behavior, among other things. One video also addresses TikTok's goal of creating a "positive" social media environment, where creativity is celebrated and harassment is banned. This particular value -- that TikTok is for "fun" -- is cited whenever the Beijing-based company is pressured about the app's censorship activity.
