Malaysia orders TikTok to explain fake content targeting king
The Communications and Multimedia Commission said the move followed the circulation of “grossly offensive, false, menacing and insulting” content, including AI-generated videos and manipulated images linked to an account falsely claiming association with King Sultan Ibrahim Iskandar.
Such matters fall within the sensitive issues of race, religion and royalty, which are highly sensitive and may undermine public order, national harmony and respect for constitutional institutions,” the regulator said in a statement.
