TikTok’s latest Community Guidelines Enforcement Report is out, and the numbers tell a strong story about the platform’s ongoing efforts to keep users safe.
Between April and June 2025, TikTok took down an impressive 592,037 videos in Kenya for breaking its Community Guidelines. Even more notable, over 92% of those videos were deleted before anyone even saw them, and 96% were gone within the first 24 hours of being posted.

These removals are part of TikTok’s broader global push to maintain a positive experience for its billions of users. Across the world, the platform scrubbed more than 189 million videos during the same quarter.
TikTok’s moderation is powered by a mix of AI technology and human review, helping the platform react quickly to harmful or inappropriate content such as misinformation and hate speech. In Q2 alone, over 163 million videos were automatically removed by TikTok’s AI tools.
But it’s not just videos being taken down, TikTok also wiped out 76.9 million fake accounts and an additional 25.9 million accounts suspected to belong to users under 13.

The goal? To keep the community authentic, safe, and age-appropriate.

For the first time, TikTok’s report included insights into how it manages LIVE monetization guidelines, the rules that ensure streamers are rewarded for creating authentic, safe, and engaging content.
During the second quarter of 2025, TikTok took action against more than 2.3 million LIVE sessions and 1 million creators who violated these monetization standards.
The actions ranged from warnings to demonetization and in many cases, those warnings served as educational opportunities to help creators align with TikTok’s policies.
TikTok says it’s not doing this work alone. The platform continues to encourage users to report any videos, comments, or accounts that seem off. By working together, the community helps keep TikTok a safe, creative space where people can connect, learn, and share their stories without fear of harmful content.
