  • Is Tiktok censoring Canadian content from the US now?

    Posted by amouristic on January 26, 2026 at 3:22 am

    Alright, so, for context, I’m from Canada. I wasn’t aware of all these glitches for everyone so I posted about an hour ago. I asked my friends from the US to go and like it, but every single friend in the US weren’t able to see it. When they clicked on the shared link, it said “video is unavailable.” When they went to my profile, it wasn’t there. I posted it to my story and still nothing. Yet my Canadian friends can see it and access the link.

    Then, my friends from the US went to my profile to follow me—I gained two new followers, but it didn’t show they were even following me. My follower count didn’t go up at all but on their end it said they were following me. I followed them from their profile and it didn’t even say we were friends. It also had different counts for my followers, following, and likes compared to what I was seeing (I had 775 followers, they say 760)

    My friend sent me a screenshot of my profile and got a violation notice. For sending a screenshot. Of my profile. My other friends tried and the same stuff happened, yet they sent a screenshot of his profile and nothing happened. My account is in good standing so there shouldn’t be any reason for this I feel like?

    So what even is going on? My app is working just fine for those in Canada. My video is at 4k views and still going up, but my US friends still can’t see anything at all. Has anyone else experienced this? Is this the new normal? I’m super worried because I have a lot of friends from the US and I want to reach a global audience, not just local, so I can grow.

    I am in the US and I went to search for a creator out of the Uk….his catch phrase is “news without the western spin”, and when I searched for it a week ago I found him….same search today…nothing😢

    Yes, this was always part of the plan. I found a Canadian creator I like who explained topics like Greenland and Venezuela. On their profile, those hard hitting videos are not visible.

    There were reports of people not being able to log in and other glitches. It’s possible the US techbros are tinkering with it.

    I am of the opinion that they tanked the algorithm since the sale is finalized.

    I just completely got rid of it due to their new terms and conditions. But reading this, scary.

    This is happening for me too. None of my USA followers can see my content (Manitoba)
