TikTok has started censoring searches for popular peptides
TikTok 已开始审查针对热门肽类物质的搜索。
Certain peptides, like semaglutide and TB-500, are now subject to easily circumvented blocks in TikTok’s search.
某些肽类物质(如司美格鲁肽和 TB-500)目前在 TikTok 的搜索中受到限制,但这些屏蔽措施很容易被绕过。
Trying to pull up information for certain peptides on TikTok is now returning a “no results found” page when searching for terms like semaglutide, BPC-157, retratutide, and others. That hasn’t entirely erased visibility on TikTok for peptides, which are combinations of amino acids that include substances like insulin and GLP-1. The problem is peptides also include unregulated, unapproved substances that proponents like RFK Jr. say can assist with everything from weight loss to wound healing, despite a lack of clinical data supporting such claims.
现在,在 TikTok 上搜索司美格鲁肽、BPC-157、瑞他鲁肽等术语时,会显示“未找到结果”页面。但这并没有完全消除 TikTok 上关于肽类物质的内容,肽类是氨基酸的组合,其中包括胰岛素和 GLP-1 等物质。问题在于,肽类还包括一些未经监管和批准的物质,尽管缺乏临床数据支持,但像小罗伯特·肯尼迪(RFK Jr.)这样的支持者声称它们可以辅助从减肥到伤口愈合的各种功效。
As a result, on social media platforms like TikTok, an army of influencer proponents are happy to suggest affiliated compounding pharmacies and other sources of unknown quality for drugs that people probably aren’t telling their doctors about. Bryan Johnson-connected influencer Jeff Tang alerted people about the apparent changes by TikTok in a tweet last night, before posting a video pointing blame at Eli Lilly.
因此,在 TikTok 等社交媒体平台上,大量网红支持者乐于推荐关联的配药房和其他来源不明的药物,而用户往往不会将这些药物的使用情况告知医生。与布莱恩·约翰逊(Bryan Johnson)有关联的网红杰夫·唐(Jeff Tang)昨晚在推特上提醒人们注意 TikTok 的这些明显变化,随后发布了一段视频,将矛头指向了礼来公司(Eli Lilly)。
For now, searching for “peptides” on TikTok still pulls up plenty of short videos, and there’s no sign that actual videos have been removed, either. TikTok’s US owner didn’t respond immediately when asked for comment by The Verge.
目前,在 TikTok 上搜索“肽”(peptides)仍能搜出大量短视频,且没有迹象表明现有视频已被删除。当《The Verge》请求置评时,TikTok 的美国所有者没有立即回应。
While the two ingredients of the so-called “Wolverine” peptide stack, BPC-157 and TB-500, aren’t searchable on TikTok, slight variations of either name still pull up published videos, and TikTok’s own search suggestions offered functional variations before I was even done typing any of the more popular peptides in circulation.
虽然所谓的“金刚狼”肽组合中的两种成分 BPC-157 和 TB-500 在 TikTok 上无法搜索到,但使用这些名称的细微变体仍能搜出已发布的视频。甚至在我还没打完热门肽类名称之前,TikTok 自身的搜索建议就已经提供了有效的变体词。
