TikTok's recent decision to ban the Skinnytok hashtag was a response to concerns from European regulators about unrealistic body images and extreme weight loss promotion. However, the removal of the hashtag does not completely eliminate the issue, as many influencers continue to share advice on achieving extreme thinness. This situation illustrates the difficulties social media platforms encounter in effectively regulating harmful content while navigating the complexities of user expression and influence on body image concerns.
The ban of the hashtag Skinnytok underscores the ongoing struggle that social media platforms face in regulating content that promotes unhealthy body images and dieting extremes.
