Pakistan Reverses Decision to Ban TikTok After Getting Assurances

Just 10 days after introducing a ban on TikTok, the Pakistani authorities said that they were reversing the decision after receiving assurance from the Chinese-owned social media platform that it would moderate content according to local laws. “TikTok is being unlocked after assurance from management that they will block all accounts repeatedly involved in spreading obscenity and immorality,” the Pakistan Telecommunication Authority, the national regulator, said in a statement.
