Watching YouTubers like moistcritikal talk about the TikTok ban without pointing out WHY it’s at risk of getting banned now of all times. :pepe_thounking: it’s absolutely getting targeted now because it’s being used to promote politics & evidence America does not want the people circulating. The U.S. wasn’t this vigilant against TikTok when China was harvesting data from its users, but now, it’s because tons of people using TikTok aren’t tolerating a certain conflict happening across the pond that America has a vested interest in.
@RehnSturm256 i mean if that were the case dont you think they wouldve gone after the fediverse, or fucking gab, or literally any other service promoting wrongthink
The difference between Gab/fedi and TikTok is every normie is using the latter. How are you going to sell a normie on fedi?
Also; it's an election year. This is the big issue. Of course if they "ban" it, they run into the problem that zoomers will be mad so the idea is to force them to sell it to someone in the USA so they can control things.
