The removal of content that violates community standards is to earn the trust of its users by being accountable while working to be safe and welcoming.

The percentage of content removed without getting any views increased by 14.7 %. One big reason for removing content was hateful behaviour; TikTok removed 16.2% for violent extremism and 7.7% for dangerous acts.
