One of the world's biggest mobile apps is stepping into the ring to fight election interference: TikTok on Wednesday announced three new measures to combat misinformation during the final months of the 2020 presidential race.

Though not exactly the go-to platform for news and politics, TikTok boasts an estimated 800 million monthly active users, which makes it an easy target for spreading fake news. A three-fold plan, however, aims to combat disinformation via updated policies that better clarify what is and isn't allowed on the site; additional fact-checking partnerships and the ability to report false election reports; and an alliance with the U.S. Department of Homeland Security to protect against foreign influence.
