TikTok expands content rules, cracks down on misinformation

Tony Abi Saab found that this article might interest all the TikTok users, check it below: What’s new: TikTok’s updated community standards are three times the lengthof the old guidelines. The platform has defined 10 issues that its content policies address, including: Dangerous individuals and organizations Illegal activities and regulated goods Violent and graphic content Suicide, self-harm and dangerous acts Hate speech Harassment and bullying Adult nudity and sexual activities Minor safety Integrity and authenticity Threats to platform security Be smart: While TikTok’s old guidelines addressed many of these areas, the new rules go into much greater detail. For example, the company published a lengthy list of who it considers to be dangerous individuals and organizations that can’t use its app, including groups affiliated with hate, extortion, organ trafficking, cybercrime and extremism. And in doing so, it defined what it considers to be a terrorist organ
