TikTok removes over 90 million videos for violating community guidelines in Q3 2021 

15 Feb 2022

The most recently published report shows that over 91 million violative videos were removed globally during the third quarter (Q3) of 2021 – around 1% of all videos uploaded, from TikTok, the world’s short-form video platform. With its recently announced updates to its community guidelines, to further enhance the wellbeing of its community and the integrity of the platform, 82.86% videos were removed proactively from the platform. 73.9% of content promoting harassment and bullying were proactively removed, while 72.4% of hateful behaviour videos were also removed before anyone reported them. Over 46,000 videos containing Covid-19 misinformation were also removed during Q3. Proactive removal means identifying and removing a video before it’s reported. Removal within 24 hours means removing the video within 24 hours of it being posted on the platform.  The report reveals that the US had the largest number of videos removed (approximately 14 million videos), followed by Russia (approximately 7 million videos), in terms of country of origin. Moreover, strict actions were taken to prevent fake engagement with millions of spam accounts, and billions of fake likes, followers and follow requests were removed from the platform permanently. TikTok continues to expand its system that detects and removes certain categories of violations at upload – including adult nudity and sexual activities, minor safety, and illegal activities and regulated goods.  As a result, the volume of automated removals have increased, which improves the overall safety of TikTok and enables the team to focus more time on reviewing contextual or nuanced content, such as hate speech, bullying and harassment, and misinformation.  TikTok is the leading destination for short-form mobile video. Its mission is to inspire creativity and bring joy. TikTok has global offices in areas including Los Angeles, New York, London, Paris, Berlin, Dubai, Mumbai, Singapore, Jakarta, Seoul, and Tokyo.
