Lawsuit filed over TikTok text-to-speech voice

Uberduck blew up in May after a lawsuit was filed against TikTok by a women called Bev Standing, who claimed the app had stolen her voice for its default text-to-speech.


This incident forced the popular video-streaming service to swap their iconic voice simulation for another, causing an uproar amongst TikTokers who had grown fond of its comically monotone sound.

Remixing the stars

Now, netizens are using the tool in many other creative ways, including doing fake duets with, writing new lyrics for and creating humorous simulated situations using their favourite artists.


Uberduck also has the unique function of fairly accurately replicating a rapper’s flow, which has proven to be a particularly attractive feature for users. Linkin Park's Mike Shinoda, for example, got Notorious B.I.G to rap his song Happy Endings and posted the result on TikTok.
