Parents warned about suicide video on TikTok

[icyfroth]

Parents have been warned to keep their children off TikTok today after a shocking video purporting to show a man taking his own life was uploaded.

Cybersecurity expert and child safety advocate Susan McLean posted a warning on Facebook about the horrifying video, advising parents the clip can also be hidden in innocent looking content such as cat videos.

“Please ensure you do not allow your older teens on the app today if they have it,” Mrs McLean wrote on Facebook.

“It is apparently now on Instagram but they are at least removing accounts posting it.

“Check in with your kids today, they most likely will know about it.

The man is reportedly Mississippi man Ronnie McNutt, whose church confirmed his death on its own Facebook page, describing him as “very caring, committed, loyal, dependable, and eccentric”.

“He served his church faithfully and was loved by many,” the Celebration Church Tupelo added.

It appears the video was first streamed live on Facebook on August 31, but now recordings have surfaced on Instagram and TikTok, and the platforms are struggling to keep it off.

I have warned the grand children and the adopted grand children.

Problem is it was taken down but people have copied it and the Ahs keep posting it

This is sick! What kind of platforms and what kind of people would participate in allowing others to see such a thing. Knowing a child could view such a thing, you'd have to wonder what kind of sick and perverted mind would re-upload something of this nature. If found these people should be given the lash.

SINGAPORE STYLE across their backs!!

Technology is a wonderful thing, and I love it, but it's being increasingly used by ppl to influence negatively, mislead, and corrupt society,

Very true icyfroth. What can be used for good can also be used for evil. And it's done a good job of ruining our society. Here i'll just discuss what I see on the everyday lower level. Toddlers, babies playing with I Phones and other games. Tell me, have I just been dosed with some kind of hallucinogenic substance? I never ceased to be amazed at what I see.

I remember once being amazed that some teenagers didn't even know how to tell the time when looking at a non-digital clock.
