Silhouette Challenge Exposes TikTok Users - a podcast by Josh Ochs

The Silhouette Challenge is a trend on TikTok that puts a red filter on a video that darkens the user’s body while they dance or move to look like a silhouette. Some users are recording the videos partially clothed or nude because they think their body is completely darkened with the red filter. The filter is applied to a user’s video using layering techniques and some hackers have found ways to remove the filter and see the original video. TikTok users are being cautioned to avoid participating in the challenge or to wear clothing they would normally be comfortable being seen wearing in a public setting.
