In its Community Guidelines Enforcement Report for the first quarter of 2024, the well-known video-sharing website TikTok disclosed on Monday that it had taken action against millions of films uploaded by Pakistanis.
As per the research, TikTok handled 20,207,878 videos in Pakistan that violated its Community Guidelines.
The announcement coincides with the enforcement of the platform’s community guidelines, which have been painstakingly designed to guarantee a secure, welcoming, and genuine environment for all users and content.
The site identifies, reviews, and takes appropriate action against any information uploaded there that contravenes its criteria using both human oversight and cutting-edge technology.
Additionally, the investigation disclosed that TikTok deleted 166,997,307 films worldwide, representing 0.9% of all videos published on the platform.
It also states that 6,042,287 of these were restored after additional examination, although a significant percentage of them, 129,335,793 videos, were recognized and eliminated by automated detection systems.
During this three-month period, 976,479,946 comments were also filtered and eliminated using comment safety techniques.
To safeguard younger users, it also removed 21,639,414 accounts that might have belonged to people younger than 13.
Additionally, the business put strong safeguards in place to stop the spread of automated spam accounts.
“This release highlights TikTok’s unwavering commitment to transparency, safety, and inclusivity, reflecting its dedication to building trust and ensuring a safe platform for its global community,” the business stated in a statement.
It was also emphasized that information about the scope and character of material and account actions is provided by the Community Guidelines Enforcement Report, which is published on a regular basis.
The platform added that although comprehensive details on specific operations affected are now available in a new standalone report, it will still provide an overview of the Covert Influence Operations (CIO) networks that have been eliminated.
