TikTok lặng lẽ cắt giảm công cụ dữ liệu được các nhà phê bình sử dụng

mọi người và các nhóm đã khai thác công cụ này để xem xét kỹ lưỡng nội dung trên trang web liên quan đến cuộc chiến israel-hamas và các chủ đề khác.

TikTok has quietly restricted (hạn chế) one of its few tools to help measure the popularity (phổ biến) of trends on the video app, after the tool’s results were used by researchers and lawmakers to scrutinize (xem xét kỹ lưỡng) content on the site related to geopolitics and the Israel-Hamas war.


The tool, called the Creative Center, is meant to help advertisers track popular hashtags on the site. The Creative Center is available to anyone and can produce figures about the number of videos tied to a certain hashtag and information about the audience that saw those videos.

The company’s critics had harnessed (khai thác) the tool to argue that TikTok, which is owned by the Chinese company ByteDance, fails to adequately (đầy đủ) moderate content on the app and that Beijing influences the posts that appear on it. TikTok itself has cited hashtag data to push back against claims of pro-Palestinian bias.

But as of last week, there was no longer a “search” button on the tool and links for hashtags related to the war and U.S. politics stopped working. TikTok said the tool was now focused on sharing data on the top 100 hashtags within different industries, such as pets or travel.
