Well I'm not a TikTok user, but it wouldn't surprise me if such a filter was equally uncomfortable with the words "murdered" or "killed" in videos. They probably really don't want death threats going viral.
- NoZebra120vClip 3y agoAudiovisual media seems increasingly sensitive to "naughty words". I've seen a lot of YouTubers who feel that it is necessary to censor words like "m*rder" or "r*pe" or "f*ck" -- exactly this way in their text descriptions, and they literally bleep the words if mentioned on video. I'm confused, because I thought that the scanners which detect TOS violations were becoming smarter, and it doesn't seem like an isolated swear word--or mention of sexual assault using plain English--would trigger an actual TOS violation, but it seems that these creators are wary of attracting attention by using the words uncensored.
