This has been happening for 10+ years on e.g. YouTube, you can't say certain words in the video or mention them in the title or you get demonetized. Nothing to do with China. | ||

> you can't say certain words in the video or mention them in the title or you get demonetized That's not censorship problems. That's advertisement problems. That's conflicts of interest problems. That's incentives problems. That's people-who-post-videos-just-to-make-money problems. Well, okay, it can easily be turned into censorship problems: instead of just demonetizing the video, don't show it to anyone. It's quite a fine line, but the line is indeed there. | ||

>> All the tech was already put in place by China. All that the U.S. had to do was change the filtered words. > I've never seen reports of censorship like this on TikTok before Ellison bought it. | ||
