TikTok is an entertainment social network where people showcase their creativity in short clips that last just a few seconds. The truth is that it is very original and can be fun, however, it is more and more common to come across inappropriate content (if you don't believe me, I just invite you to use the application for 5 minutes and you will know what that means).
