Because the only reason to bsn TikTok are racist reasons. Their practices have been examined closely and found to be less invasive than they rest. And Facebook, they're horrible.
The reasons usually given are mumbled generalities but refer to China getting access to American citizen data.
"China" seems to be the common theme.
The very data for sale on the open market. It's all bullshit.
I'm not defending TikTok and certainly not Chinese govt practices. They do evil. But no evidence of it in this instance.
Is it also racist that China has banned Facebook and many other US based services?
It's not racist but it is terrible
I do think so.
Dude, some people just prefer longer form content. To each their own.
I never said that shortform content is bad or that tik tok should be banned. I just couldn't care less about the app because it just doesn't have anything in particular that interests me. If it did I would be using tik tok and not lemmy lol. The comment above just kinda rubbed me the wrong way i guess.
