Can't wait for this tag to be added to TikTok
Apparently TikTok has said they would actually prefer to shutdown US operations rather than sell.
It would be hilarious to imagine a government run tiktok.
Oh my job? I scroll TikTok all day looking for morons posting crimes they do online and tagging them to be forwarded to local police departments.

I have no doubt that some police departments actually do this. You can gather a lot of intelligence from public posts by people that aren't very intelligent.
I've seen policy bodycam videos on YouTube where the police knew where to find a criminal with a warrant because they were on TikTok or a similar site, bragging about some crime they committed, and tagged the location.
Please contract that job out to me, local PD. Sounds like an easy WFH.
The "joke" was that TikTok is ran by the Chinese government.
We still need more government apps on F-Droid. EU's OSS strategy suggests that we'll have them eventually. I don't think such badge will ever exist there, though.
That sounds interesting any sources to read up on that ?
Nice. I like it.
