The BBC reported at the time that keywords and phrases like “Tiananmen” and “tank,” along with seemingly harmless phrases like “candlelight” and “today,” were all blocked.

The candle emoji was also removed for a short time in 2017 when it was used in posts mourning Nobel Peace laureate and Chinese dissident Liu Xiaobo.

In 2018, for instance, women used emojis for “rice” and “bunny” — pronounced “mi” and “tu” respectively — to make posts about the Me Too movement.
