Re: Mark Zuckerberg Stoked Washington’s Fears About TikTok
#12I have no opinion on TikTok (I am an adult with better things to do,) however, fair question: does TikTok pose a threat? There was a report that TikTok users sabotaged a Trump rally. It would seem that that could be considered “election campaign interference sponsored/enabled by a foreign government.” We’ve gotten mad at Facebook for similar things haven’t we? Or, if it’s against Trump, that’s acceptable? Not sure wh…
I was wondering about that too. For those claiming that Trump is mad at TikTok[1] because kpop fans on the site sabotaged the Tulsa campaign rally by signing up for (free) tickets,
a) How do you know that said sabotage was 100% organic and not something TikTok manipulated its algorithms to encourage?
b) Even if said sabotage were 100% organic, does the fact that this was done on a Chinese platform cause concern?
c) How do your answers change if a Biden campaign were the target?
[1] Don't be too sure about TikTok's user base being anti-Trump. `#Trump2020` has received 7 billion hits, compared to 900,000 for `#Biden2020`. https://www.wsj.com/articles/microsoft-aims-for-a-deal-to-bu...

#13Isnt Zukerberg also married to a Chinese and speaks Mandarin?
You can support Chinese culture, language and people whilst not supporting their government or its policies.
No different to how the world sees countries like Israel, Russia and even the US.

Oh good, finally someone who agrees with me that every other country in the world should ban Facebook, Twitter, Reddit and so on because those country's citizens use those platforms and also participate in or sabotage political rallies. Clearly the US has been meddling in elections around the globe for a decade and needs to be sanctioned!

d) Do you ask the same questions of American social media and its effects on other countries' politics?

I have been downvoted for expressing similar things, as you are (atm) the same.
The thing is, you can't. TikTok has been VERY pro censoring about thing they dont 'like' (see censoring tiannamen stuff, ugly people, disabled people). So it isn't out of though they may use it for us election interferance

The rule is to not allow a social app owned/controlled by a communist state to gain popularity in the US.
China has its own rule that doesn't allow apps/services that promote freedom(of speech).
It looks like US realised(a bit late) that the communist state it fed got pretty fat and it became challenger at no. 1 world's super-power spot.

#19Well, he got to eliminate competition and had a copycat tech ready in the wings. Typical business/cronyism move.
