TikTok bans users who violate their community guidelines, and people on your Following list may get banned. Here's how to discover them and unfollow them:

Head to your TikTok profile page

This requires you to learn TikTok community guidelines. So, here are some activities that can get you a TikTok ban:
Distributing Content that Promotes Violence
TikTok focuses on creating a safe space for its users. Hence, individuals promoting dangerous activities threatening public safety may get suspended or banned.
Distributing Sexually Explicit Content
Content that promotes nudity or is unsafe for work can lead to a TikTok ban. Also, the platform doesn't support harmful content that glorifies the grooming of minors.
Sharing Content that Promotes Self-Harm
TikTok doesn't support content that shows self-harm, including eating disorders, self-injury, and suicidal activities.
Plus, content encouraging people to engage in risky stunts in an unprofessional context violates TikTok's community guidelines.
