TikTok is one of the platforms that managed to gain great momentum in a short time. In this respect, it is actively used almost everywhere. However, the popular platform started to be banned in many countries due to abuse. With the news that emerged today, TikTok was banned from another country.
TikTok is also banned in Nepal!
TikTok, which has become popular among social media platforms with short videos, has users of all ages. This paves the way for video to be included in all kinds of content. When all these come together, the abuse of the platform also increases.
Due to the increase in abuse of TikTok, many countries began to ban the platform. Recently, a new one was added to these countries. Nepal said in a statement on Monday that it would ban Nepal.
He suggested that the reason for this was that social harmony and goodwill were disrupted due to the misuse of the popular practice and there was an increasing demand for its control. On the other hand, it was noted that there were more than 1600 cybercrime cases related to TikTok in Nepal in the last four years.
Rekha Sharma, Nepal’s Minister of Communications and Information Technologies, made a statement. In his statement, he said that the decision to ban TikTok was taken at the cabinet meeting held on Monday. “My colleagues are working to have it technically shut down.”
This decision was subsequently subjected to many criticisms. The focus of the criticism was that “there are many undesirable things on other social media platforms and what needs to be done is regulation, not restriction.”
