Is TikTok Dangerous?

In recent months, scientists have discovered a new illness, of which they call enphitefulocios (en-fight-ful-ocios) What is this caused from? Is it deadly? 

Lots of people wonder what causes this potentially permanent disease. The cause? Tiktok. While using this app, viewers can easily check out posts, like “Six Seven”, or “Emotional Damage.” Scientists have done tests with the FBI, to learn that some viewers have experienced increased lighting while on social media in a room, enough to hurt viewers’ eyes. After too many views from a certain vlogger, they may get this terrible disease, where the front of their eyes may start to melt, causing a huge lack of vision. This has happened before, with the invention of the television. However, graphics have improved over the years, making TV a lot safer. The FBI has been trying to track posters with this lighting down, but only Tik Toker Jasen Brook has been caught at this time. The creation of his meme? A rip off version trying to mimic the young kid, who yelled “six seven!” loud into a microphone, where that video went viral on Tik Tok. Many people have since then tried to mimic this “67 kid”. This is the only Tik Toker currently identified as causing the disease. 

Some might wonder, why just TikTok? Can other platforms be dangerous? Luckily, only TikTok is known to be dangerous. Other platforms, like Netflix, Disney, Hulu, etc, are given to the government to be looked over by the FBI. They have been found to not have this lighting issue and are deemed safe to use. TikTok is one of the only streaming platforms that are not regulated by FBI officials. President Donald Trump is now proposing to potentially ban TikTok from U.S. citizens, or  at least temporarily.  This, if it does happen, will increase safety. Finally, can people die from this? Luckily, no. At least not until you watch one of these videos approximately one thousand times. This disease is lethal, but no one should watch that much. 

Hopefully, we can start to produce eye drops to protect ourselves from enphitfulocios, of which scientists are already working on. In the meantime, we can’t spend all our time on TikTok. It could be dangerous, and it’s not worth the risk.
