I’d like to see regulations that put consumer protections and enforcement in place that take away the concerns that everyone has with tiktok but any other social media is too.
But you know just banning the app will totally work and there won’t be any other apps that do the same thing /s
social media is one of the first places where closeted queer kids can be themselves and meet a community of people. social media is important for them we just need one free of disinformation and toxicity
I swear most posts I see on this sub are less technology and more “what is going on in us politics and might involve a phone or computer somehow” lol
It’s all pretend. The US government already controls TikTok. The targeting of TikTok only serves to further entrench the anti-China narrative pushed by the ruling class to manufacture consent for war.
Nope we watched them take HK.
We remember Tiananmen Square.
We see what they are trying to do to Taiwan.
Talk about empire lol
My problem with banning TikTok is that it’s not because it’s an app that harvests data and causes psychological and social harm, but that we’re banning it because it’s not an American app that harvests data and causes psychological and social harm.
