MODERATORS
Of course and they are. My point is people hate in tiktok all the time because it's Chinese and because they harvest data while ignoring the fact Facebook/Instagram snapchat etc are all doing the same stuff and they don't get met with a ban.
Because one is domestic and one is not. It's pretty simple to understand. Geopolitics is still a thing.
One is domestic. Who stills sells that data to China ๐
They should, and the EU should logically ban both if they're unwilling to moderate the hate-speech and lies that infest their platforms.
Exactly I completely agree. But it's an obvious move to fill the pockets of politicians because they own stocks in Meta and meta has been lobbying against tiktok for years.
I assure you I have hated Facebook long before TikTok
