Koran burner Salwan Momika has been banned from earning money on TikTok. However, last week he started a new account and was able to earn money again. After questions from TT, TikTok chose to ban the account. Over the weekend, he started a third account and made thousands of kronor in just one day. During his live broadcasts, thousands of people around the world were able to follow the events in real-time on their phones. Through TikTok’s system, Momika was able to earn thousands of kronor with each broadcast. TikTok has earned as much money from the Quran burnings as Momika himself, as the company keeps 50 percent of all gift revenues. TikTok’s decision to disable the gift feature on Momika’s live broadcasts was criticized in several media outlets. However, last week, he managed to bypass the system and regain access to the gift function. On Thursday evening, he had accumulated over 11,500 kronor (115,600 diamonds). The next day, when TT asked TikTok about this, Salwan Momika’s new account was banned. However, just because an account is banned, it does not mean that the person or their mobile phone is banned. It is possible to create new accounts after they are removed, and that’s exactly what Salwan Momika did. In the past few days, he has been live again in the evenings and has once again been able to earn money through gifts. As of Tuesday morning, he had earned over 4,300 kronor. However, this account was also deleted on Tuesday. TikTok does not agree to an interview with TT and refers to its guidelines, which state that users can create multiple accounts. However, TikTok can limit or permanently block an account if the rules are violated. According to the rules, a new account can be banned if a previous account has been closed due to violations. TT has tried to contact Salwan Momika.
