Minnesota has joined a growing list of states taking TikTok to court, accusing the platform of deceiving young users with addictive algorithms that fuel mental health problems. Attorney General Keith Ellison says the case isn’t about free speech but about manipulation and failure to warn of known harms. The lawsuit adds Minnesota to roughly two dozen states challenging TikTok, even as national debates continue over ownership and data security. At stake: how much responsibility social media companies bear for the well-being of kids. Steve Karnowski with Associated Press has the full story.
