TikTok US pushes back on claims it is censoring content

TikTok has denied claims that its new US operations are heavily-controlling what users post after thousands reported glitches with the video streaming platform.
In a response to the BBC, a spokesperson for TikTok US reiterated an earlier statement pointing to technical issues being the reason for problems since it became a separate American entity last week.
“We’ve made significant progress in recovering our US infrastructure with our US data center partner,” the spokesperson said. “However, the US user experience may still have some technical issues, including when posting new content.”
They also pushed back on users’ claims they were not able to use the name “Epstein” on TikTok.
