I mentioned my daughter-in-law's TikTok account Pinay Sa Alaska (Filipina in Alaska) which has become very popular in the Philippines. The account was suddenly blocked, and they couldn't figure out why. She appealed, and some sites suggested that it might be weeks or even months before a determination was made. She was reinstated in four days, and the report included the offending footage, which was determined to not violate community guidelines after all.
It was a video closeup of my son cleaning a salmon. Big knife. Blood. She had been shut down while she was still talking in the background, so the thinking is that the AI cannot distinguish between human and fish being cut by a big knife, with blood, and just shut her down automatically.

My wife recently got put in FaceBook jail for a joking reference to burning down a house to get rid of a spider. As you can probably guess she hates all small critters that crawl or fly.
I think most social media company claims of blocking by algorithm are bullshit, from the aspect that every single block put in place by their software is still reviewed by a human being who ultimately makes a subjective decision to either leave it in place or remove it, and that's exactly the way they want it to work.

No. Not even close. Software does the work, no one reviews anything, the numbers are impossible.
