Andrew Tate, facing serious allegations, has initiated legal proceedings against TikTok and Meta, seeking substantial damages for emotional distress and business interference.
Andrew Tate Takes Legal Action Against TikTok and Meta
Facing serious allegations of rape and sex trafficking in Romania and the UK, Andrew Tate, often referred to as the “king of toxic masculinity,” has decided to pursue legal action against Meta and TikTok. This comes after the platforms banned him and his brother, Tristan Tate, from their services.
Seeking Damages for Emotional Distress
Currently residing in Dubai, the Tates are demanding $50 million each from TikTok and Meta, claiming that their bans have caused significant emotional distress and harmed their business interests.
Legal Filings and Allegations
In a legal filing dated August 13, the Tates argue that TikTok’s decision to deplatform them was politically motivated and unlawful. They assert that they had a substantial following and generated significant revenue through their online activities before their removal.
Claims of Suppression of Free Speech
The Tates believe that their removal from these platforms is part of a broader campaign to silence their voices. They contend that the actions taken against them were not isolated incidents but rather a coordinated effort to damage their reputations.
Response from TikTok and Meta
Representatives from both TikTok and Meta have not yet responded to requests for comment regarding the Tates’ legal filings.
