You should be concerned about this if you live in China.

Or if you apply for a visa!

I would imagine you would also want to avoid getting on their list if you ever wanted to travel to there as a tourist.

You're right, that would be a concern if I felt important enough for China to give a fuck about me and what I have to say as a foreign national. Too bad that me only exists in your imagination and the real me understands that the world does not revolve around their travel and internet activity.

I'm not following the logic, do they censor content differently based on the country of the account holder??

They meant physical consequences as in using China's internet access unique id to identify the commenter and then having them "reeducated" by local government forces.

It does not matter that China censors because TikTok users live in the West.
