• Globally, TikTok removed 204,534,932 videos in Q3 2025, with 91% detected and removed by automated systems.

The Communications Authority of Kenya (CA) has initiated Kenya’s first trial of Digital Sound Broadcasting (DSB) in Nairobi, marking a significant shift in the country's media landscape. This move, coinciding with World Radio Day 2026, aims to alleviate severe frequency congestion and introduce high-fidelity audio to listeners.

• Over 300 licensed radio services have saturated the VHF Band II (87.5–108.0 MHz) in urban areas, prompting this digital transition.
• The CA's framework focuses on DAB+ in VHF Band III (174–230 MHz) and DRM in the HF band (30 MHz).
• Mast Rental Services Ltd, one of two authorized licensees, has launched a DAB+ trial network carrying 14 radio programs in Nairobi.
• The shift promises "CD-quality" sound, reduced transmission costs for broadcasters, and new revenue streams, with a phased rollout ensuring no immediate analogue switch-off.
