The videos, which began popping up last month, show students taking items, such as wet floor signs, microscopes and clocks, and then describing them as their 'devious licks.'

TikTok on Wednesday confirmed it has banned content around the "devious licks" trend, in which students post videos of items they allegedly stole from their schools.

Those two accounts, and their "devious licks" videos, appear to have been removed as of Wednesday. TikTok said it can't comment on specific accounts. "At this point, devious licks has spread outside the platform. It's all over Instagram, Facebook, you name it. I'm not surprised they did it, just surprised that they let it get to such a point before taking steps to shut it down," he said.
