Fascism. All of you clap while you set precedent for banning speech and am ACTUAL attack on the 1st.
I used to be neutral on the ban until I read about their politically-motivated content moderation and how they push certain narrative into people’s feeds.
Like every other media outlet, or publisher? I could not care less about what they are pushing, it will be abused.
Are we still talking about TikTok or is it Facebook/Twitter/every US social media site?
None of them have been as aggressive as TikTok. Most US social media companies have failed to curtail right wing bigots but that a separate conversation from TikTok tbh
Links? What kind of "politically-motivated content"?
I'm pretty sure they're banning TikTok because reality/truth tends to disillusion the youth and liberate the oppressed.

Yeah your links don’t address the actual data disparities though. I love Vox but that article is super naive.
Edit: and the other link doesn’t really say much else
