TikTok is being threatened with a ban in Pakistan over 'immoral' content, less than a month after it was banned in India

. It's not clear from the PTA's statement exactly how long TikTok has to change its practices before it is banned.

A spokesperson for ByteDance, TikTok's parent company, told Business Insider that the company was "committed to further strengthening our safeguards to ensure the safety of our users, while increasing our dialogue with the authorities to explain our policies and demonstrate our dedication to user security."

They added that TikTok removed more than 3.7 million user videos from Pakistan in the second half of 2019, most of which were removed before they had been viewed. The warning from Pakistan comes less than a month after both TikTok and Bigo were banned in India, although the country's cite different reasons. Bigo is Chinese, and TikTok is owned by a Chinese company — both were. India claimed the move would preserve "data sovereignty."

The ban came after a border clash between Indian and Chinese soldiers in the disputed territory of Ladakh on June 15.

With China controlling Pakistan with their huge investment in the country, I doubt TikTok will be banned in Pakistan.
