Shadow banning refers to the practice of social media platforms secretly limiting the reach or visibility of a user's content without notifying them. Users often suspect they are being shadow banned when their engagement drops significantly or their posts stop appearing in search results and hashtags. It is a frequent topic of debate regarding platform censorship, algorithmic bias, and the lack of transparency in content moderation.
