Under its updated community guidelines, set to take effect in May, TikTok has added a long list<\/ins><\/a> of content that\u2019s not eligible to be recommended in the app\u2019s coveted \u201cFor You\u201d feed. The list includes some obvious categories, like sexually suggestive or violent content, but it also adds topics that have previously been a source of controversy for the app. For example, the new guidelines bar videos showing \u201cdangerous activity and challenges,\u201d as well as many types of weight loss or dieting content. It also prohibits any clips from users under the age of 16 from appearing in \u201cFor You.\u201d<\/p>\n

There\u2019s also a lengthy section dedicated to a wide range of misinformation and conspiratorial content. From the guidelines:<\/p>\n

In addition to the eligibility changes, TikTok says it will also begin to penalize creators who repeatedly disregard this guidance by making their entire account ineligible for recommendations, not just the specific offending posts. The company will also make their account \u201charder to find\u201d in search.<\/p>\n

Additionally, the app is getting a new \u201caccount status\u201d feature, which will help users track if they are running afoul of these rules. Much like the feature of the same name in Instagram<\/ins><\/a>, TikTok\u2019s account status will alert creators to strikes on their account and posts that run afoul of the app\u2019s rules. And an \u201caccount check\u201d feature will allow users to track if they are currently being blocked from recommendations or otherwise unable to access features like messaging or commenting as a result of breaking the app\u2019s rules.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
