Tiktok is the absolute worst at irrational censorship. It's a shame because the site is immensely popular and that means it is full of very interesting content. Yet, this is far from the first unreasonable thing they've been removing. It's well known how Tiktok users came up with alternative words to circumvent words that were likely to get their content removed (e.g., "unalived" instead of "killed").

Nah, unalived was being used by gaming YouTubers years before TikTok. YouTube does the same kind of censorship shit.

Tell me about it. They literally block access from Hong Kong.
