The only thing I could come up with, assuming this isn’t a technical glitch, is that TikTok already had the infra to silence anything they want on the platform and as soon as the keys were handed over they turned that filter up to 100%
Sure, but are they running audio recognition and image recognition models on each upload just to classify it?
How would you distinguish this from the case where they turned the 'magnify dissent' filter down from 200%?
