You're saying that the solution would be to hold TikTok liable in this case for failing to prevent fraud on its platform? In that case, we wouldn't even really need a new law. Mostly just repealing or adding exceptions to Section 230 would make platforms responsible. That's not a new solution though. People have been pushing for that for years.

DMCA wasn't a blanket "you're responsible now", but defined a specific process for "this is how you demand something is taken down and the process the provider must follow".
