Well I didn't say this was "something new". Your comment is somewhat accurate, but not the whole story. A copied Tiktok share URL looks like this: https

Your comment is somewhat accurate, but not the whole story.
A copied Tiktok share URL looks like this:
https://www.tiktok.com/t/<unique_id>/?k=1
When pasted into a browser though, it redirects to the normal post URL:
https://www.tiktok.com/@<author_username>/video/<video_id>?_t=<tracking_id>&_r=1
From there the tracking ID can be easily removed (by one's self) from the query params. This is in contrast to Facebook's new approach.
