TikTok Removed Over 23 Million Videos From Pakistan for Breaking Rules

Between April and June 2026, TikTok eliminated more than 23.2 million videos in Pakistan due to violations of its Community Guidelines, according to the platform's Q2 2026 Community Guidelines Enforcement Report.

Most of the videos taken down in Pakistan were automatically removed, accounting for 99.7% of the total.

TikTok identified and removed 94.5% of these violating videos within 24 hours of posting. However, the company reinstated 519,075 videos following further reviews. Globally, automated detection systems were responsible for 99.5% of video removals, with 92.7% of violating videos taken down within 24 hours of being uploaded. TikTok also removed 173.6 million accounts during the quarter, including 146.8 million fake accounts and 26.8 million accounts suspected of belonging to children under 13.

The majority of removed videos worldwide were due to sensitive or mature content (19.5%), mental and behavioral health topics (16.1%), body exposure and sexualized behavior (13.8%), dangerous activities and challenges (13.5%), edited media, and AI-generated content (1.8%). TikTok releases its Community Guidelines Enforcement Report quarterly to provide transparency on content moderation, account removals, and enforcement measures.
