This happened because these users either had set up accounts with a fake date of birth or couldn’t provide a Government verified ID to verify their age. There are many teenagers who fall between the age group of 14-18 who use TikTok. The problem with these users was that they were legally eligible to use TikTok, but the majority of them didn’t have a source to verify their age. So, despite being legal adults, their accounts were most likely to get banned by TikTok.
Another reason why TikTok may ban an account is that the person is publishing offensive content on the platform. TikTok has certain guidelines on what type of content you can publish. And, if you don’t meet these guidelines, there’s a huge probability that TikTok will permanently ban your account. In this situation, the chances of recovering the account are slightly lower as well.
