With the #RESTRICTAct, #Congress wants to continue #Trump's war on #Tiktok, banning the Chinese-owned service. How will they do this? Congress isn't clear. In practice, banning stuff on the internet is hard, especially without a national firewall:

👀 Emulate #China by banning #TikTok?: "Republicans have come up with a national strategy to permanently lose elections for a generation: Ban a social media app called TikTok that 94 million, primarily young Americans, use." @SenRandPaul #ampFW ampfw.org/3G3dhCZ
👀 "This GOP strategy comes while polls indicate that 71% of young women and 53% of young men voted for a Democrat for Congress. Many Dems have joined in calling for this ban but like most such issues, the blame will stick to Republicans more." #ampFW ampfw.org/3lXGUhV
👀 "Ban #TikTok strategy comes while GOP simultaneously complains of US social media companies canceling, censoring conservatives. W/o a hint of irony, “conservatives” now agitate to ban a platform owned by an intl. group that includes Americans." #ampFW ampfw.org/3lXGUhV

New analysis here shows that the average #TikTok user is more likely to be exposed to content favorable to the CCP than a user of other major social media
TikTok search results for “PLA” overwhelmingly pro CCP
“Wuhan lab” lacks relevant results on TikTok, suggesting moderation

Leaked documents obtained by a reporter in 2019 showed that "TikTok... instruct[ed] its moderators to censor videos that mention Tiananmen Square, Tibetan independence, or the banned religious group Falun Gong." Those guidelines are no longer in use.

アメリカ：政府発行全ての端末でTikTok禁止法案が上院通過、米国20以上の州が政府端末で同アプリを禁止。また、幾つかの大学でも学内の無線ネットで同アプリ使用禁止。Trump時代にTikTok禁止の大統領令も、裁判所に支持されず、現在の民主党Biden政権により撤回され遠回りとなった経緯がある。

TikTok’s Confidence-Destroying Bold Glamour Filter is the Logical Product of Platforms Built for Consumerism
Rachel Griffin (@rachel_grfn) sees the beauty filter as the obvious endpoint of the underlying structural dynamics of the social media industry.

With reference to @KathyCastorFL's comments in yesterday's #TikTok hearing in the House Energy & Commerce Committee:
"...criticizing TikTok as irresponsible or calling for it to add labels to videos where a filter is used – essentially suggesting that properly-informed users should be capable of resisting the unattainable beauty ideals they’re bombarded with – misses the bigger picture."
For ppl who are following the #Tiktok hearing at the Capitol Hill now: #Bytedance, the parent company of the social media app, established it's own Communist Party's committee in 2017.
Orders to compromise data can be ordered from the party's chain of command, not by state.

Data in Texas alone cannot safeguard it.
Third party audit of source code and algorithm will not solve it.
As long as there's a chance which a PRC-based Bytedance staff can touch upon US-based user data, the CCP chain of command can order them to extract it w/o consequences.

As #TikTok's CEO is being grilled by the US House Committee on Energy and Commerce, it's time to cut through the noise on what the issues are with TikTok and why the USG, through #CFIUS, seems trending toward a force divestiture.
First, I cannot disclose anything about this transaction that I learned while working on CFIUS matters in the USG. Everything on this thread is based on information that is publicly available through news reporting.
The issues with Tiktok is two-fold – data security and the ability to manipulate the algorithm for propaganda. I wrote an explainer about this in the Washington Post back in 2020: washingtonpost.com/politics/2020/…
There are quite a number of #CCP-influence-focused congressional hearings happening simultaneously this morning, from focusing . EXCELLENT. I'm at the @USCC_GOV where now @PLMattis is speaking powerfully about the CCP's premier overseas info op, the United Front Work Department👇

🧵With the growing concerns about #TikTok, I finally decided to have a look to it. In this thread, I will cover a review of its privacy policy and a dynamic analysis of the Android app with @PiRogueTools and explain its limitations.
First of all, TikTok's privacy policy is quite explicit regarding what data is collected. Obviously, it collects the information the user provides such as profile information, contacts, payment card information or other third-party payment information.
Next, it collects a wide range of information such as keystroke patterns or rhythms, IP address, approx. location based on SIM card, IP or GPS location. It also detects and collects characteristics and features about the media by identifying objects and scenery.
Are you an educator, researcher, or scholar that is trying to create and promote #history content through social media? If so, join us April 11, at 8pm (est) to learn tips and tricks on how to increase your reach from historian @PhdRachel! This will be hosted by @KeriLeighMerrit
Dr. Gunter has grown a significant social media following (especially on #TikTok) by posting #historical #content. Despite its faults, #socialmedia can be a fantastic medium to help reach students and the public.

Dutch government to ban use of TikTok on government phones
The government immediately advises government officials not to use apps from countries such as China and Russia on their work phones. In time, a complete ban will follow.#China #Russia #TikTok nu.nl/tech/6256249/n…

Minister van Huffelen says that the government goes further than discouraging 1 app. "We are opting for a structural solution that government officials can trust, with their work in a digital world. The government must be able to do its work safely, also via mobile devices."
Soon,officials will get phones on which only pre-approved apps can be installed and used. Spy-sensitive apps are banned altogether from that moment on.Exceptions are made if an app is needed for specific tasks of a government org(such as inspection&supervision or investigations).
🧵 Why the war in 🇺🇦 #Ukraine?
Beyond the #propaganda of war which makes us more stupid than we are, let us rather analyse the deep reasons of this fratricidal war.

1. First of all, let's leave aside any #TikTok analysis, in a #war it's always about desecrating the enemy, making him more horrible than he really is.
Ukraine is not full of Neo #Nazis, and the #Russian army is not a bunch of rapists — You won’t believe it? but it’s true.

2. Also, it’s not a language or culture war, all these micro societal fights have strictly no interest.
This is only a question of geopolitical / geographical position of #Ukraine in the world — and nothing else.
To be more convinced of this, let's go back a bit.

#TikTok, il social network cinese dove si postano video per lo più stupidi, ha sbaragliato la concorrenza (Facebook, YouTube, Twitter ecc.) tra i giovanissimi, vale a dire i cittadini elettori di domani.
Al contrario, in Cina i social network occidentali sono banditi per impedire alla gente di informarsi da fonti non governative e/o non controllabili dalla censura.
In sostanza, TikTok è una ciclopica pesca a strascico di scempiaggini e di banalità confezionate in modo seducente e distribuite con criteri scientifici ad un pubblico di ragazzini e di idioti.
Let’s start a thread of best Ukrainian war, TikTok dances. Please add to it. From one crisis to the next - they didn’t even change the script. yet the sheep still follow. Baa Baa

TikTok gehört dem chinesischen Internet-Technologieunternehmen ByteDance, einem der weltweit führenden Anwender von künstlicher Intelligenz. Seit 2015 ist es weltweit aktiv und in Europa vor allem durch das Videoportal TikTok bekannt.
Wie viele chinesische Unternehmen hat ByteDance ein internes Komitee der Kommunistischen Partei Chinas (KPCh), welches die Parteimitglieder unter den Mitarbeitern organisiert. Der Vizepräsident von ByteDance, Zhang Fuping, dient hierbei als Parteikomitee-Sekretär.
