I've seen people on news and other places saying that they can't send texts with the word "Epstein," there was also censorship around Israel and ICE videos as well

Yeah ofc, and it will continue.

The things being censored is just different now.

"Always has been"

I'm pretty sure the keywords have changed, but they should've mentioned in the article that Tiktok has never been uncensored.
