European regulator Thierry Breton delivered a strongly worded letter to TikTok CEO Shou Zi Chew on Thursday. In the letter, Breton emphasized the platform’s responsibility in monitoring and swiftly removing graphic content and misinformation related to the Israel-Hamas conflict, in accordance with the European Union’s Digital Services Act. Breton urged Chew to respond to these concerns within a 24-hour timeframe, highlighting the critical nature of the issue.

European regulator Thierry Breton said in a letter, “First, given that your platform is extensively used by children and teenagers, you have a particular obligation to protect them from violent content depicting hostage taking and other graphic videos which are reportedly widely circulating on your platform, without appropriate safeguards.” “First, given that your platform is extensively used by children and teenagers, you have a particular obligation to protect them from violent content depicting hostage taking and other graphic videos which are reportedly widely circulating on your platform, without appropriate safeguards.”

TikTok is required to monitor and remove illegal information, such as terrorist content or unlawful hate speech, in accordance with the recently passed Digital Services Act in the European Union. TikTok must also describe its procedures in depth.

This action by Breton is part of a series of similar letters he has recently sent to prominent figures like Elon Musk and Mark Zuckerberg, reflecting his commitment to addressing disinformation and illegal content circulating through various online platforms. In these letters, Breton expressed his office’s growing concerns about the potential misuse of these platforms in spreading harmful information during the ongoing Israel-Hamas conflict.

Ig TikTok fails to abide by European laws governing the use of unauthorized content may result in fines equal to 6% of the yearly revenue. The same goes for any other offending company.
