MILAN (AP) — Italy’s data protection authority said Friday it was imposing an immediate block on Tik Tok’s access to data for any user whose age has not been verified.

The authority said it was acting with “urgency” following the death of a 10-year-old girl in Sicily, who died while participating in a so-called “blackout” challenge while using the Chinese-owned video-sharing social network.
