KARACHI: TikTok removed over 30 million videos from Pakistan during three months of second quarter (Q2) of 2024, its latest community guidelines enforcement report said.

The report, released on Tuesday, provides transparency into the content and accounts removed during the reporting period for violating the platform’s community guidelines.

In Q2 2024, the platform removed over 178m videos globally, with the majority taken down through automation, underscoring TikTok’s innovative use of detection technology to eliminate harmful content in real time, said a press release.

This advancement enables TikTok to scale its moderation efforts and maintain a secure environment for its growing global community.

With a proactive detection rate of 98.2pc, TikTok is more efficient than ever at addressing harmful content before users encounter it.
