This week has also been busy for the teams reviewing citizen reports on harmful content on TikTok. Since the start of AMA’s collaboration with this platform and the opening of a dedicated link on the Authority’s official website, where the public can report content they consider harmful, hundreds of such reports have been submitted.
Since the collaboration began on August 22, the following actions have been taken regarding harmful content:
• 400 complaints were received by AMA
• 112 were deemed as violations of the law. Out of these, 100 videos and 9 audios were removed from the platform, and 3 are under review.
While piracy remains a concern as a widespread online phenomenon, through this collaboration with TikTok, the following actions have been taken:
• 865 videos reported for piracy, of which 829 were removed from the platform
• 121 profiles were closed after being reported for pirated content, while 36 are under review.
In addition to piracy cases, citizens are encouraged to report harmful content that includes violence, hate speech, child abuse, abuse of communities, or violations of fundamental rights, etc.
