Spanish investigation uncovers thousands of new paedophile videos and profiles on TikTok
The organization 'Maldita.es', author of the work, has filed a complaint with the Prosecutor's Office against the social network for its inaction against accounts that create this content with millions of views.
Spanish investigative outlet Maldita.es has uncovered thousands of new videos and pedophile profiles on TikTok, revealing the platform's deep-seated issues with child sexual abuse. The report found 1,183 explicit videos with 48 million views and over 26,000 potential pedophile profiles actively commenting and sharing the material.
Despite TikTok's removal of some videos, most of the accounts remain active. Maldita.es has reported the issue to the Spanish Prosecutor's Office, providing evidence of the problem. The outlet calls for further action from TikTok to address the ongoing issue.
