At TechnoWikis we have already discussed the tremendous success among teenagers on the TikTok social network. Currently it is probably the social network with the highest capacity to virilize content. However, the combination of adolescent with content can be somewhat dangerous since sometimes, certain content may not be appropriate for these adolescents. This is why TikTok makes available to users the possibility of reporting any content (videos), accounts or even comments that may be offensive or inappropriate for the community.

As we have mentioned, the amount of videos currently published on TikTok can be overwhelming, so sexual, violent or inappropriate content can sneak into the application. This content is not allowed on the platform and therefore users have the tools to report this type of video so that after its study by TikTok it can be removed if they consider it appropriate..
On the TikTok platform you can not only report videos but you can also report accounts that publish this inappropriate content and even punctual comments made under any video published on the social network.
It is important that before publishing content to your TikTok account, you be clear about the community rules to prevent other users from reporting your content, comments or even your account. These rules can be read from the following link: TikTok community rules. However, you must be clear that the law is above these rules, so the published content must undoubtedly comply with it..
