Time Up For Tik Tok

ARGHHH!!!!! Chinese owned Tik Tok is destroying the minds of a generation and America's youth are being brainwashed in order to bring about the collapse of Apple Pie, Chewing Gum and fat men in Hawaiain shirts and cowboy hats.
Joe Biden was awake long enough to announce he would ban Tik Tok if a bill passes because it is a security risk but strangely no mention of the risk posed by Facebook which has been accused of interfering in American elections and of being actively involved in the death of 10,000 people in
Myanmar by amplifying hate speech and failing to take down specific posts or close accounts inciting violence against the Rohingya people.
Then you have Twitter (now X) which recently reinstated a slew of extreme right wing accounts but the problem seems to be that Xi Jinping knows you spend all day watching videos of cats falling off kitchen worktops.
Excuse me if i fail to swallow the Tik Tok ban is less about security and more about who is allowed to use your data with the choices being the Chinese Government or making money for some extremely weird right wing billionaires with some highly dubious data privacy practices.
America may be saying no to the Chinese running a social media site but have no problem with the Chinese making their toys, clothes, cars, computers, mobile phones and shoes and sell them to Americans over other social media companies.
Another choice is always opting out of all of them altogether and that way you know where your data goes, nowhere.

  1. your ignorance is not surprising. and it reflects the ignorance of the general public - the so called wisdom of the masses.

    1. the chinese use the data gathered to profile people using the Big 5 personality model - aka OCEAN - which you don't want to know about because you opt to use the far inferior Myers-Briggs...

    2. once they have profiled people, they then use the profiles to identify who is most susceptible to various disinformation

    3. the chinese then use targeted disinformation to causes public dissent, undermine the US government, influence elections, and influence domestic terror

    both the left and right leaning pols in the US get it and see the danger it poses when the chinese

    ps - circa 2015, cambridge analytics used facebook data to profile americans (using OCEAN, aka the Big 5 personality profile). using those profiles they then predicted who would vote, and who would vote for trump vs hillary. the trump campaign use the profiles to more efficiently and effectively use campaign donations to motivate his potential voters...

    pss - this was the time that hillary hired a former uk spook to create lies to substantiate her claim that the russians were influencing the election with disinformation to get trump elected... remember? know, you are a leftist and only remember the facts that you fabricate...
