TikTok launches new transparency center to display information more intuitively

TikTok recently released its latest content removal request report , which includes all content uploaded by users in the first half of this year that violated its community guidelines or other official requirements .

In addition, TikTok has launched a new transparency center, which will become a gathering place for all transparency reports on the platform , and users can more easily view historical trends of the platform through this feature .

The benefit of TikTok platform centralizing all reports in one area is that users can more easily compare and analyze previous data to see trends and changes in platform policies .

For example, in the second quarter of this year, TikTok removed more content in the United States than in any other region, which is consistent with historical trends in previous reports.

From the figure we can see that the United States topped the list in the second quarter of 2021 , with 11.4 million videos removed due to various violations, Pakistan ranked second (9.9 million), followed by Brazil (7.5 million).

These three countries have consistently topped the list in TikTok’s previous three reports , but overall, violations on the platform decreased in the first quarter of this year .

In terms of reasons for video removal, the safety of minors was the primary issue, accounting for 41.3% of the total removals , followed by illegal activities and regulated goods (20.9%), adult nudity and sexual activities (14%) and violent and bloody content (7.7%).

The proactive detection mechanism enables TikTok to ensure that most of the illegal content is removed before users see it . At the same time, TikTok has also been working to improve its crackdown on fake profiles . It is understood that between April and June , TikTok prevented the creation of nearly 150 million fake accounts and deleted 8.5 million videos.

As more and more users look to leverage their influence to gain money and profit, and as some attempt to manipulate public opinion through social media platforms , false and inauthentic profile information becomes a bigger problem .

TikTok 's transparency report is a great feature that monitors all aspects of the platform's regulatory process. Although some issues may not be discovered by the platform by chance , it does help users understand the platform more deeply and regulate platform user behavior .
