TikTok has released its Q4 2025 Community Guidelines Enforcement Report, showcasing its ongoing commitment to creating a safe digital space for its users. The report, which covers data from October to December 2025, details the proactive steps TikTok has taken to identify and remove content that violates its Community Guidelines, ensuring a positive experience for its global community.
Globally, TikTok removed a total of 175 million (175, 302, 085) videos worldwide in this quarter, which represents about 0.5% of all content uploaded to the platform. Of the removed videos, 152,580,933 videos were detected and taken down using automated detection technologies, while 8,360,780 videos were reinstated after further review. The proactive removal rate stood at 99.1%, with 93.4% of the flagged content removed within 24 hours of posting. To uphold TikTok’s integrity, in this quarter, the platform has removed 147,716,518 fake accounts, along with the additional 23,875,879 accounts that were suspected to be under the age of 13.
During the quarter, the number of videos removed before receiving a single view declined, reflecting ongoing advances in the platform’s AI-driven moderation capabilities. These systems are also becoming more effective in detecting and removing older violating content. Comment removals decreased significantly, driven by an enforcement approach that prioritised demoting potentially offensive or inappropriate comments over direct removal. At the same time, the removal of fake likes and followers increased, underscoring ongoing efforts to identify external threats and protect the platform’s integrity.
The report also indicates that a significant portion of total removed videos—21.2%—contained sensitive or mature themes that did not align with TikTok’s content policies. An additional 9.1% of videos breached the platform’s safety and civility standards, while 1.2% violated privacy and security guidelines. Additionally, 1.6% of the removed videos were flagged as misinformation, and 1.8% of the videos removed were flagged as edited media and AI-generated content.
The periodic publication of the Community Guidelines Enforcement Report offers insights into the scale and nature of content and account actions, underscoring TikTok’s commitment to full transparency.
