People are discussing this as a China vs India thing.
It is not.
People recently found that TikTok is extremely lax in dealing with content that promotes violence.

- cscurmudgeon 6y agoTiktok too takes an extreme viewpoint banning anything remotely close to offending China.
- partiallypro 6y agoYeah, I remember a Tiktocker getting banned for pointing out that China has Muslims in concentration camps and it barely made the news cycle. Tiktok found something else she had also violated and used that as a banning offense...but we all know full well they would have never enforced that were it not for her CCP rant. Tiktok has a lot of creatives on it, but I worry that it's a bit of an infiltration.

- throwaway46543 6y agoThe last time TikTok was proactive in removing violent content, it got blamed for censorship. There was a girl who posted a video that included pictures of Bin Laden, so TikTok removed it. She then created alt accounts and continued posting. When TikTok removed the video again, the news media said it was because she mentioned Uighurs, when in reality it was because of the Bin Laden pictures.
