Minister links 5G spectrum auction with resolution of two key issues
ISLAMABAD: Federal Minister for Information Technology and Telecommunication Shaza Fatima Khawaja has linked the much-anticipated 5G spectrum auction with the resolution of two key issues including the acquisition of Telenor by the PTCL and ongoing spectrum litigation cases. 'The government plans to auction 5G spectrum by the end of this year, subject to the resolution of pending matters,' said the minister while addressing at an event where Ministry of Information Technology and Telecommunication (MoITT) and the Ministry of Federal Education and Professional Training, in partnership with, TikTok, announced the official launch of Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM) feed in Pakistan, reinforcing its commitment to make high-quality educational content more accessible and engaging for all. Pakistan is currently operating on 274 MHz of spectrum, while the upcoming auction is expected to offer double that capacity. Fatima also highlighted ongoing efforts to improve digital infrastructure, including fibre optic expansion, satellite internet, and smartphone affordability. A new policy is being drafted to allow smartphones on easy installments. 'We are working on a comprehensive digital identity system under the Digital Pakistan Act,' she said, adding that internet access in the country has increased by 25 percent. She also stated that inflation and policy rates have declined due to better integration of digital systems. The minister revealed that Pakistan's IT exports rose by $1 billion over the past two years, with 96 percent of freelancers contributing over $700 million. Additionally, 1.2 million laptops were distributed on merit, with another 100,000 to be provided soon. She announced that one million children will be trained under the country's Artificial Intelligence (AI) policy, while 100,000 individuals have already received training via DigiSkills in the last year. She said that seven submarine cables are already connected to Pakistan; with three more expected this year. The world's largest submarine cable will also link with Pakistan by the end of 2025. 'In today's era, technology is becoming a part of our lives. We want to see how we can learn something new using technology,' said the minister, adding that technology should be used in an ethical and positive way. She said that technology played a crucial role in the India-Pakistan war. The new STEM feed on TikTok is a dedicated in-app experience where users can explore a curated stream of high-quality content focused on science, technology, engineering, and mathematics. It is designed to spark curiosity, promote critical thinking, and expand digital learning opportunities, especially for students, educators, and young professionals across Pakistan. TikTok is also partnering with leading academic institutions across the country to launch a training programme for teachers, educators and instructors. These trainings are focused on empowering them with the tools, techniques, and best practices, needed to create compelling, informative, and engaging STEM content tailored for short-form video. In addition, TikTok is actively nurturing Pakistan's local STEM creator community, providing training and guidance to increase the volume and quality of STEM content across the platform in English, Urdu and regional languages as well. This effort is aimed at building a self-sustaining educational ecosystem where both formal educators and independent creators contribute to a shared mission: making STEM education fun, inclusive, and discoverable. TikTok has also launched a dedicated hashtag #StemTok, as well as a landing page, where it will feature content created by partners, creators and publishers, providing easy access to local language STEM content in Pakistan. The minister said that this initiative is aligned with our broader vision to use digital platforms to enhance education and skill development in Pakistan. TikTok's STEM feed is an excellent example of how technology can democratize access to knowledge and empower our youth, including aspiring female students, to explore new career pathways in science and technology. 'We are proud to support this collaboration with TikTok and look forward to seeing its long-term impact.' Wajiha Qamar, Minister of State for Federal Education and Professional Training, stated, 'We welcome the launch of TikTok's dedicated STEM Feed in Pakistan as a step towards making science and technology more accessible and relatable to our youth. Digital platforms, when used responsibly, can become powerful tools for education, creativity, and empowerment.' Fahad Muhammad Khan Niazi, Head of Public Policy and Government Relations, Pakistan at TikTok said: 'The launch of the TikTok STEM feed in Pakistan marks an exciting milestone in our mission to inspire and educate through creativity.'

TikTok allows US users to debunk misinformation
TikTok on Wednesday rolled out a crowd-sourced debunking system in the United States, becoming the latest tech platform to adopt a community-driven approach to combating online misinformation, reported AFP. Footnotes, a feature that the popular video-sharing app began testing in April, allows vetted users to suggest written context for content that might be wrong or misleading - similar to Community Notes on Meta and X. "Footnotes draws on the collective knowledge of the TikTok community by allowing people to add relevant information to content," Adam Presser, the platform's head of operations and trust and safety, said in a blog post. "Starting today, US users in the Footnotes pilot program can start to write and rate footnotes on short videos, and our US community will begin to see the ones rated as helpful - and rate them, too," he added. TikTok said nearly 80,000 US-based users, who have maintained an account for at least six months, have qualified as Footnotes contributors. The video-sharing app has some 170 million US users. TikTok said the feature will augment the platform's existing integrity measures such as labeling content that cannot be verified and partnering with fact-checking organisations, such as AFP, to assess the accuracy of posts on the platform. Just like X The crowd-sourced verification system was popularised by Elon Musk's platform X, but researchers have repeatedly questioned its effectiveness in combating falsehoods. Earlier this month, a study found more than 90 per cent of X's Community Notes are never published, highlighting major limits in its efficacy. The Digital Democracy Institute of the Americas (DDIA) study analysed the entire public dataset of 1.76 million notes published by X between January 2021 and March 2025. As with Footnotes on TikTok, X's community-driven moderation model allows volunteers to contribute notes that add context or corrections to posts. ??Other users then rate the proposed notes as "helpful" or "not helpful." If the notes get "helpful" ratings from enough users with diverse perspectives, they are published on X, appearing right below the challenged posts. "The vast majority of submitted notes — more than 90 per cent — never reach the public," DDIA's study said. "For a program marketed as fast, scalable, and transparent, these figures should raise serious concerns." A vast number of notes remain unpublished due to lack of consensus among users during rating. Thousands of notes also go unrated, possibly never seen and never assessed, according to the report. When it comes to TikTok, the platform cautioned it may take some time for a footnote to become public, as contributors get started and become more familiar with the feature. "The more footnotes get written and rated on different topics, the smarter and more effective the system becomes," Presser said. As with X, tech platforms increasingly view the community-driven model as an alternative to professional fact-checking. Earlier this year, Meta ended its third-party fact-checking program in the United States, with chief executive Mark Zuckerberg saying it had led to "too much censorship." The decision was widely seen as an attempt to appease President Donald Trump, whose conservative base has long complained that fact-checking on tech platforms serves to curtail free speech and censor right-wing content. Professional fact-checkers vehemently reject the claim. As an alternative, Zuckerberg said Meta's platforms, Facebook and Instagram, would use "Community Notes." Studies have shown Community Notes can work to dispel some falsehoods, like vaccine misinformation, but researchers have long cautioned that it works best for topics where there is broad consensus. Some researchers have also cautioned that Community Notes users can be motivated to target political opponents by partisan beliefs.

No more YouTube for under-16s in Australia
Australia will use landmark social media laws to ban children under 16 from video-streaming site YouTube, a top minister said on Wednesday, stressing the need to shield them from "predatory algorithms". As per AFP, communications Minister Anika Wells said four-in-ten Australian children had reported viewing harmful content on YouTube, one of the most visited websites in the world. "We want kids to know who they are before platforms assume who they are," Wells said in a statement. "There's a place for social media, but there's not a place for predatory algorithms targeting children." Australia announced last year it was drafting laws that will ban children from social media sites such as Facebook, TikTok and Instagram until they turn 16. The government had previously indicated YouTube would be exempt, given its widespread use in classrooms. "Young people under the age of 16 will not be able to have accounts on YouTube," Prime Minister Anthony Albanese told reporters on Wednesday. "They will also not be able to have accounts on Facebook, Instagram, Snapchat, TikTok, and X among other platforms. "We want Australian parents and families to know that we have got their back." Albanese said the age limit may not be implemented perfectly - much like existing restrictions on alcohol — but it was still the right thing to do. A spokesman for YouTube said Wednesday's announcement was a jarring U-turn from the government. "Our position remains clear: YouTube is a video sharing platform with a library of free, high-quality content, increasingly viewed on TV screens," the company said in a statement. "It's not social media." On paper, the ban is one of the strictest in the world. But the current legislation offers almost no details on how the rules will be enforced - prompting concern among experts that it will simply be a symbolic piece of unenforceable legislation. It is due to come into effect on December 10. Social media giants - which face fines of up to Aus$49.5 million (US$32 million) for failing to comply - have described the laws as "vague", "problematic" and "rushed". TikTok has accused the government of ignoring mental health, online safety and youth experts who had opposed the ban. Meta - owner of Facebook and Instagram - has warned that the ban could place "an onerous burden on parents and teens". The legislation has been closely monitored by other countries, with many weighing whether to implement similar bans.
