TikTok's Automated Moderation System Strikes Again: User Banned for 'Sexual Activity' Joke

A TikTok user, known only as skerbie37, recently experienced a seven-day ban from live streaming due to a misinterpreted joke. During a live session, skerbie37 playfully suggested a price for showing the bottom of her feet. TikTok's automated system flagged this as "sexual activity," leading to the ban. "This app is a snowflake," skerbie37 commented, expressing frustration over the platform's inability to understand context and humor in live streams. This incident raises questions about the effectiveness of automated content moderation systems and their potential to unfairly penalize users.
