During Q4 of CY2021, TikTok removed around 6.5 million Pakistani videos.

TikTok, a short-form video website, has eliminated over 6.5 million infringing content from Pakistan.
Tik Tok has issued its newest Community Guidelines Enforcement Report for Q4 2021 (October-December 2021), which includes updates on the platform’s dedication to community safety and compassion.

The platform’s continued effort to win confidence by being responsible and trying to be safe and inclusive is reflected in the report. Authentic participation across the comment space, safety warnings for authors, and strict adherence to the lengthy Community Guidelines are all part of these initiatives.

The platform will give information regarding content removals and ongoing system improvements when identifying, reporting, and deleting violative content starting with this report. 85,794,222 videos were deleted globally in the fourth quarter of 2021, accounting for nearly 1% of all videos published to TikTok.

Nearly 94.1 percent of films were deleted for breaking Community Guidelines within 24 hours of being posted, 95.2 percent before a user reported them, and 90.1 percent before they received any views.

Pakistan ranked third in the world for the most videos taken down in Q4 2021, with 6,563,594 videos deleted for breaking Community Guidelines.

These advancements have aided in increasing the speed with which harassment and other unwanted conduct regulations are dealt with. To date, the rate of removing content that violates the Community Guidelines before it receives any views has improved by 14.7 percent in the case of harassment and bullying, 10.9 percent in the case of hate speech, 16.2 percent in the case of violent extremism, and 7.7 percent in the case of dangerous acts.

“At TikTok, we think our community should be based on a foundation of respect, kindness, and understanding,” a TikTok representative stated. We seek to enable our users to maintain control over their interactions with others on TikTok in order to help them form healthy digital relationships in accordance with our standards for proper behaviour. When it comes to keeping people safe, there’s no such thing as a finish line, and our newest report and sustained safety improvements show our ongoing dedication to our community’s well-being.”

Along with its efforts to proactively delete abusive and hateful content and conduct that violates the site’s Community Guidelines, the platform is experimenting with new approaches to make everyone feel more in control of comments via real involvement. This includes experimenting with techniques for users to identify comments that they feel are irrelevant or improper, such as by disliking them.

The gathered community input will be used with a variety of other elements to help keep the comment area relevant and a place for true conversation. Furthermore, only the individual who registered a dislike on a remark will be able to see that they have done so, in order to avoid depressing artists.
