Welcome to the tag category page for Shadow banning!
The term "Account Ban" refers to the action of prohibiting a user from accessing or using a platform or service due to a violation of the platform's policies or guidelines. The bans can either be temporary, lasting up to 24 hours or permanent, which is irreversible. Users may appeal their account ban, but it is not guaranteed to be successful. TikTok is a platform notorious for banning accounts that violate community guidelines, and there is a ban banner notification that appears when a user's account is banned. Twitter also suspends accounts that violate its policies for safety. Users that are banned are no longer counted as active users, and they cannot perform any operations on the platform.
