TikTok Can Delete 100 Negative Comments At Once
JAKARTA - TikTok makes it easier for content creators to report demeaning comments. These include comments that are cyberbullying, hate speech, and sexual harassment.
Through an update released by the company yesterday, Thursday, May 20, the TikTok app has been added with the feature to select many comments at once. In fact, quoting TikTok Newsroom, it reaches 100 comments at once!
The selected comment can be deleted immediately. Alternatively, TikTok video creators can also report it and block multiple accounts at once.
As is known, previously, content creators could only respond to one comment at a time. Whether it's reporting comments, deleting, and blocking accounts. This will help creators' content, or even make netizens bolder to delete comments they don't want to see.
To Make Content Creators Be Bolder to Express Themselves
On the other hand, this feature also plays a lot of role for the TikTok platform itself. Because TikTok's algorithm can make anyone a star or an influential figure instantly. Made them watch by millions of unknown people.
These conditions certainly have a big impact on seasonal or amateur creators. A figure who is so vulnerable in the face of hate speech and negative comments from netizens.
That way, this feature is expected to help creators in dealing with negative comments. Especially for TikTok's huge audience scale.
TikTok revealed that the feature was released yesterday. However, the initial release only took place in selected countries.
The company insists that it will take a week for the app to be released globally. And in a later update, TikTok has also prepared some anti-harassment features.
