Spain to investigate alleged child sexual abuse material on TikTok
The investigation comes after fact-checking association Maldita.es revealed rampant child abuse footage on the platform, and wrote a complaint to Spain's cybercrime unit.
Banco Santander and energy company Moeve have suspended their advertising campaigns on TikTok. Santander has also cancelled all new activity on its account on the platform, where it has 217,000 followers. Both companies are waiting for TikTok to guarantee that it can control child sexual abuse material and ensure that their ads do not appear alongside images of pedophilia.
