TikTok removed more than 25.4 million videos in Pakistan between April and June 2025 for breaching its Community Guidelines, the platform revealed in its Q2 2025 Community Guidelines Enforcement Report.
According to the report, 99.7 percent of these videos were identified proactively, while 96.2 percent were taken down within 24 hours of being posted — reflecting one of the highest enforcement efficiencies among global markets.
Globally, TikTok deleted 189.5 million videos during the quarter, representing about 0.7 percent of all uploads. Of these, 163.9 million were detected through automated tools, and 7.4 million were later reinstated following review.
The platform also removed 76.9 million fake accounts and an additional 25.9 million accounts suspected to belong to users under the age of 13.
Content-related violations varied widely. Around 30.6 percent of the removed videos contained sensitive or mature themes, 14 percent violated safety and civility standards, and 6.1 percent breached privacy and security policies. Meanwhile, 45 percent were flagged for misinformation, and 23.8 percent included AI-generated or edited media.
TikTok stated that its quarterly enforcement reports are meant to demonstrate transparency and accountability in content moderation. “The regular publication of enforcement reports reflects our commitment to transparency and community safety,” the company said.
The platform noted similar enforcement trends earlier in the year. During Q1 2025 (January–March), TikTok took down nearly 25 million videos in Pakistan, with a proactive removal rate of 99.4 percent and 95.8 percent deleted within 24 hours.
That report also showed comparable violation patterns: 30.1 percent of removed videos globally contained mature or sensitive themes, followed by breaches of privacy and security (15.6%), safety and civility (11.5%), misinformation (45.5%), and AI-generated or edited media (13.8%).
TikTok said these enforcement reports aim to help users, regulators, and policymakers understand how large-scale moderation operates and which violations occur most frequently.
