Nicușor Dan stated that TikTok contributed to Călin Georgescu's campaign, mentioning that the platform had no filters for comments, which allowed for the manipulation of algorithms. He emphasized the need for regulation of social networks, so that each account is associated with a natural or legal person. The Attorney General confirmed the activation of 20,000 TikTok accounts, which generated two million automated comments in favor of Georgescu.
