TikTok removed 4mn 'violative' videos in EU last month

TikTok said Wednesday it pulled four million “violative” videos in the EU in September, in its first transparency report since a new law against illegal and harmful content came into force across the bloc.

The Chinese-owned video-sharing platform favoured by younger online users also stressed that it has 6,125 employees whose job is to moderate content in the European Union, in all its national languages.
