TikTok Announces Leadership Changes in Trust and Safety Unit

The social media giant appoints Adam Presser as the new head of global trust and safety, amid ongoing scrutiny over platform security.

TikTok's global trust and safety unit will now be led by Adam Presser, following Cormac Keenan's transition to a strategic advisory role.
CEO Shou Chew announced a $2 billion investment in trust and safety efforts for 2024, highlighting the company's commitment to platform security.
The leadership overhaul includes the departure of Theo Bertram and Rich Waterworth, senior leaders in Europe, as TikTok faces increased scrutiny in the US and Europe.
During his tenure, Cormac Keenan introduced several safety features and policies, including default screen time limits for teens and parental control options.
The changes come after CEO Shou Chew testified before a US Senate subcommittee on youth safety on social media platforms.
