If I recall, the video was not taken down. Her account was still active so people could see the video, but her access to the account was blocked for a month.

It’s ironic because TikTok was getting a lot of flak in the news recently because they were too slow to remove actual terrorist propaganda. So they probably went overboard and it resulted in this situation.

Damned if they do, and damned if they don’t.

Want to add to this. Tiktok blatantly violates Google's device ID policy, and actually admits it in writing.

> We share your device ID with measurement companies so that we can link your activity on the Platform with your activity on other websites;

My contact at google said a year ago when I asked if they know about Alibaba's device ID abuse for advertising targeting, it's their policy to not to touch Chinese companies' device ID abuse.

The press release specifically states that the video was taken down: "November 27, 2019 @ 7:06am ET – Due to a human moderation error, the viral video from November 23 was removed."

>but her access to the account was blocked for a month.

Do you mean she actually experienced 1 month of blockage, or that they planned to block her for a month but actually didn't.

The article says she was only blocked for 2-3 days (Nov 25 until now).
