Georgia Attorney General Chris Carr announced he has joined counterparts from 14 other states to send letters to Apple and Google asking them to increase the age rating for the TikTok app, currently marketed to children 12 years old and up.

The attorneys general detailed the misleading nature of the TikTok age ratings—which incorrectly portray the offensive content gathered and given to kids and teenagers who commonly use the app—in a pair of letters to Apple CEO Tim Cook and Google CEO Sundar Pichai on Dec. 13.
