Protecting Minors from Exploitation
The partnership also prioritizes safeguarding minors from exploitation. TikTok has collaborated with the Women and Children Cybercrime Protection Unit to address cases involving children being coerced into creating harmful content sold internationally.
Enhancing Law Enforcement Capabilities
To support the fight against cybercrime, TikTok is providing training sessions for PNP-ACG personnel. These sessions will strengthen their ability to navigate the platform’s systems, comply with legal standards, and efficiently address online threats.
Practical Tips for Online Safety
Filipino users are encouraged to remain vigilant while using social media platforms. Report any suspicious activity directly to TikTok or the PNP-ACG through their official channels. Simple actions, like verifying seller profiles and avoiding suspicious links, can significantly reduce the risk of scams.
Building a Safer Digital Environment
This collaboration reflects the importance of joint efforts between law enforcement and social media platforms in creating a safer online environment. By addressing scams and exploitation, PNP-ACG and TikTok demonstrate their commitment to protecting Filipino users from cyber threats.
