Palestinian TikTok journalist Bisan Owda was permanently banned in Jan 2026 amid U.S. ownership changes and new hate speech policies.
Palestinian journalist Bisan Owda, who had 1.4 million followers on TikTok and was known for her coverage of Gaza, was permanently banned from the platform in early January 2026.
She said the ban was unexpected, despite prior content restrictions, and attributed it to TikTok’s recent U.S. ownership changes and updated policies that label the term “Zionist” as hate speech.
The move coincided with broader concerns about political influence over content moderation, especially after Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu praised TikTok’s acquisition by U.S. entities.
Owda continues her work on alternative platforms, while media watchdogs raise alarms about free speech and algorithmic bias.
