TikTok, a popular app for short videos, has shared a report about what they did in the second quarter of 2023. They removed over 14 million videos that didn’t follow their rules. They want to make sure the platform is safe and welcoming for everyone.
In Pakistan, most of the videos that broke the rules were removed quickly, even before people could see them. Almost all of them were taken down within a day. They were very proactive in removing these videos.
Globally, TikTok also got rid of almost 19 million accounts that seemed to belong to users under 13 years old. This is to protect young users.
In the second quarter of 2023, TikTok removed about 106 million videos worldwide, which is a small percentage of all the videos on the platform. Most of these removals were done automatically, but some were put back after a review.
TikTok wants to create a safe and inclusive environment for its users. They have rules that apply to everyone and all kinds of content. They use technology and human checks to find and remove content that doesn’t follow their rules.
TikTok shares these reports to be transparent about what they’re doing to keep their platform safe.
