In addition to the removed content, TikTok also deleted 1,750,000 accounts for "automation" during the same time period as the U.S. election. The company maintains that it was unclear if any of these accounts were being used to boost political misinformation, but viewed it as "important" to remove these automated accounts at the time.
Furthermore, TikTok shared that there were more than 400,000 videos of "unsubstantiated content."

In all, TikTok says it removed more than 89 million videos globally during the second half of 2020 for violating the platform’s community guidelines or terms of service. Nearly 12 million of those videos were posted by users in the states.
