Supreme Court seems to signal they'll uphold the Tiktok ban

Celebrating the government shutting down the app is not the move. This ain’t about tik tok or china getting our data at all. It’s all about regulating information and social media. Same with the porn bans that are starting to pop up. We are heading for some scary times in this country.

Nope.
I can almost guarantee if we see his investments, there's meta stock in there. Tik tok is competition to his own social media(truth social) and its keeping his meta stock from appreciating. He won't want tik tok to stay unless one of HIS people whom he's sure is 100% going to follow his orders buys it, otherwise he might change the law so he can buy it.
A more sensible president would ask NPR to buy it and turn it into a public service moderated and controlled by a collective of computer science professors and government employed software engineers.
Those tech staff being laid off could be put to work helping the government and tik tok can be a tool for the government to send important updates to people.
Instead we have a revolving door of private industry to government so politicians are acting in the interests of big business instead of their voters

Wow the latest twist in the TikTok ban saga — “approved content creators” (aka those contracted by the Pentagon) will still be allowed to post on TikTok in order to shape the perception of the US to foreign audiences abroad. 🫠

AIPAC approved content creators, no doubt.

Thanks for the 411 James!

Ummm am I missing something? Cause if they ban all Americans won’t the American influencer lose influence? Especially if TikTok is the way they are consumed?

This is the real reason why it's being banned. No one cared about Tiktok until the real footage of what Israel is doing to Palenstine started surfacing. Never before in history have we been able to see a genocide on documented video the way TikTok has captured it. Until TikTok Israel had the narrative about what was going down on lock. Their lies could not compete with live footage. This type of documentation topples regimes and the US cannot have people on the ground controlling the narrative. People can write the app off as encouraging brain rot, but it's just propaganda. There's Tiktok communities for every discipline, subject matter, social issue. Prominent scientists, lawyers, historians, musicians, artists, politicians, and everything in between creating their own content and spreading their own knowledge and I think it scares the shyt out of the government.

I am untethered and my rage knows no bounds!
China got shot on lock with that Xiaohongshu red note app already 
I'm actually surprised Douyin the actual Chinese tiktok app hasn't been placed in the app store yet

Exactly. @Remote and others who dont use tik tok and don’t understand it buy into the “it’s just brain rot” narrative. They want to regulate what you see on the internet and people are applauding this.

That “it’s just brain rot” notion is funny cause the Coli is just another form of brain rot. Some of y’all have legitimately conditioned yourselves to hating gay people but love tranny’s.
And don’t get me started on the militant PAWG lovers.
Somehow I think the world will still know what's happening in Israel without Tik Tok.Exactly. @Remote and others who dont use tik tok and don’t understand it buy into the “it’s just brain rot” narrative. They want to regulate what you see on the internet and people are applauding this.
Please, put the tinfoil hats away, TikTok is an app for the ADD/ADHD crowd that can't focus. There was life before TikTok and there will be life after it.Exactly. @Remote and others who dont use tik tok and don’t understand it buy into the “it’s just brain rot” narrative. They want to regulate what you see on the internet and people are applauding this.
You’re missing the bigger picture. They don’t even want to ban it. They want it to be sold. That’s should tell you everything
Yeah, at least for now, unless an American company buys it, but it would take an act of Congress to lift the ban.Sadly with Elon and Zuckerberg having Trump's ear, that will never happen..

Can you cite another platform where most of the videos about Palestinian people came from and still are coming from? I can assure you it's not the BBC or CNN. Where do you think the videos from that region are coming from?
