According to agency representatives, the main goal of such actions is to ensure a safe digital space for Ukrainians and prevent the spread of illegal schemes on social networks. Content monitoring continues — experts check not only TikTok and Instagram, but also other popular platforms, including streaming services and video hosting sites.
