What tiktok.com is, from the removal side
TikTok is a network surface. Clipped previews used to funnel viewers to a paid mirror, and impersonation accounts. Copyright reporting per video; impersonation through the dedicated report form.
Route openDMCA holds: Curated report form. host_handlers seed row in supabase/migrations/20260607182000_anonymize_and_impersonation.sql. A notice about tiktok.com therefore reaches a route that is published and documented.
RDAP probe run 2026-09-04 against the same bootstrap service the takedown dispatcher queries. It returned abuse@support.gandi.net, which is the registrar's abuse desk rather than the site's.

Where a takedown for tiktok.com stalls
Delisting of the video URL if it was indexed before removal.
openDMCA routes every URL through the Removal Graph — a live map of which hosts actually remove content, how fast, and through which channel — so each takedown takes the shortest path that has historically worked for that host. For tiktok.com that means the rungs above are not run in a fixed order: a host with fewer than a quarter of its resolved notices ending in a removal, measured over ninety days with at least five samples, is fast-pathed straight to search delisting instead of spending a second email round on it.
