The Kenyan government has introduced a new regulation that requires TikTok to provide quarterly reports on its activities. This means that TikTok will need to submit regular reports to the government to ensure compliance with the new regulation.
The Ministry of ICT has informed the National Assembly that TikTok will produce compliance reports every three months, outlining their efforts to combat obscene, sexual, and offensive content.
During a parliamentary session, John Tanui, the Principal Secretary for ICT, highlighted that the Kenyan government and the social media giant agreed to regulate the app last year. The Ministry believed that implementing regulation was a better approach than a complete ban on the app in Kenya. A ban would have negatively impacted young people, who primarily earned their income as influencers on the app. Moreover, the government aims to generate revenue from digital content creation, making regulation a more practical solution.
In August of last year, a petitioner named Bob Ndolo called on Kenyan members of parliament to ban the TikTok app due to what he perceived as “erosion of cultural and religious morals” in society. Later that same month, TikTok CEO Shou Zi Chew informed President William Ruto in a virtual meeting that the company is committed to moderating content to prevent hate speech, misinformation, and sexually explicit content.
I wasn’t even planning to explore anything new, but one night curiosity got me. I came across http://www.tenderbang.com/jerk-off-with-someone.html while scrolling through random adult boards, and the name itself made me laugh at first. Then I realized it’s actually a space where people openly talk and play without judgment. I ended up in a live chat where things went from jokes to moaning faster than I expected, and it felt surprisingly natural. No fake vibes, just real people who wanted the same dirty fun. It gave me this rush, like being a teenager sneaking around again, and I can’t deny it was hotter than I imagined.
