The popular video-sharing app TikTok permanently banned and removed the pro-life group Live Action from its platform, Live Action president and founder Lila Rose said Friday morning.
TikTok removed a video Live Action posted and then informed the group that it was permanently banned Thursday, Rose said in her statement.
Live Action had published “an educational video to our TikTok highlighting lives saved by our content & raising awareness of the importance of speaking out on abortion,” Director of External Affairs Alison Centofante said in a press release. The platform reportedly told Live Action around 2:30 p.m. that the video “violated community guidelines.”
Live Action immediately appealed the removal of the video, Centofante said, and around 3 p.m. received an email from TikTok announcing that the Live Action account “was banned due to multiple Community Guidelines violations.”
Tik Tok has not responded to Live Action’s request for an explanation as to why the account was removed and what specific community guidelines were violated.
