  • Every social media platform with a feed uses some system to rank content for its individual users. This can be abused to subtly influence users.

    You say TikTok has never harmed you but the truth is you probably wouldn’t know. You just changed your mind about certain things over time.

    That problem is certainly not specific to TikTok and I personally avoid also YouTube, Reddit or anything Facebook but it’s not hard to believe that a Chinese or Russian platform is even less hesitant to influence elections, for example.

    It’s so funny that the socialist rethoric doesn’t even crumble here when talking about big tech. Who are Microsoft’s poor exploited workers exactly? Last I checked, developers in big tech make bank. It’s the customers that get fucked.
