ByteDance&#8217;s announcement of the time restrictions therefore suggests parents complete their kids&#8217; registration, or manually enable Youth Mode.<\/p>\n<p>Another problem is that limiting usage is bad for business: Douyin\/TikTok&#8217;s content recommendation algorithms are famously successful at keeping users on the platform for longer, thereby making them a more attractive advertising target. Restricting user time will therefore hit ByteDance&#8217;s bottom line.<\/p>\n<p>And when the bottom line hurts, investors go cold. Indeed, financial press report that a high-level meeting was held last week at which big Wall Street investors asked senior execs at the People&#8217;s Bank of China to explain China&#8217;s policies. They sought more certainty on future directions and their impact on the share price of Chinese tech giants, which have recently been forced to limit gaming time and remove content felt to be unpatriotic, gory, or even to feature effeminate men.<\/p>\n<p>ByteDance&#8217;s post doesn\u2019t mention the wider financial issues its new restrictions create, but does announce a bug bounty program of sorts under which users are asked to report any issues regarding registration for, or escape from, Youth Mode. Those who find bugs will be rewarded with what machine translation tools describe as a &#8220;book card&#8221; valued at around $310.<\/p>\n<div aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"adun\" data-pos=\"top\"
