TikTok’s removal of blue verified check marks from some popular accounts is causing an uproar among the app’s highly followed stars. This month, TikTok suddenly unverified multiple accounts with millions of followers on the platform, including Dr. Miami, Bethenny Frankel, FaZe Rug and even Duolingo.

Salzhauer posts regularly on TikTok and has built large followings on Instagram and Snapchat. He has starred in the reality TV show “Dr. Miami.” He believes that TikTok was just doing an audit of verified accounts. After being unverified, Salzhauer became worried that users would take the opportunity to more easily impersonate him.
