staged pranks. It seriously is an educational app teaching people about a lot of things. Of course women showing off their ass and tits, dog, cat, etc. videos is great too and there's plenty of that on Tiktok but governments don't want to ban Tiktok because of "national security" reasons cause China spying on people. They want to ban it because it exposes a lot about everything including U.S. government, history, etc. If you want to get rid of Tiktok then you also want to ban police body cameras or ban any and all cameras like the one recording Rodney King getting beat

TC supports people getting killed doing dumb challenges with the justification being at least he can watch a funny video about how the very first word in the constitution is a personal pronoun.

I think part of the reason why it's considered a bad thing is it's addictive nature, possible effects on society and mental health at large, the cyber bullying, the negative impacts on mental health, and the unrealistic standards it sets. (Especially in young peoples)

Also there's always the misinformation aspect to. (tiktok is rife with medical misinformation, along with many other dangerous types of misinformation)

"hey, check out this cool life hack you've never heard of before!" *shows something that is widely known by various peoples, such as hanging up clothes to dry in the sun*

also, so many of them play a horrible song over videos for no good reason... it gets quite grating. not to mention the infamous bad dance and lip sync videos

I forgot to say Tiktok exposes a lot of racists too. If those racists are recorded saying/doing something racist and it goes viral, they basically can't find a job for 10-20 years

It's inferior to other video-sharing sites that, because of its popularity, is making said video-sharing sites worse as they try to copy it.

Its focus on solely short-form video content is ruining our already-preciously-small attention-spans.

Don't know if there are any hidden motives by the Chinese-backed ownership. Could just be paranoia, though, of course.

Proven how? Because Trump said so?

Biden and the democrats have embraced TikTok and even invited influencers to the White House. Seems this ridiculous "spyware" accusation is one sided and xenophobic.

I don't hate it. I just wish we let the millennials have something for themselves. Us old heads gotta be part of everything and not let the next gen have anything to themselves. We feel entitled to everything

Remember when Myspace came out and it was mostly just ours? Wish they had that getaway from older people.

The guy and people who think that the pandemic is over because people don't wear masks anymore? Those are definitely people worth blindly listening to. Definitely don't question their moves. They definitely never have alternative motives. That's only a Republican thing :3.

Commissioner Carr was nominated to the FCC by President Trump and confirmed unanimously by the United States Senate.

Okay, so this guy is a Trump surrogate. Duly noted.

That's what it is when you get down to it. The people caught don't get in trouble enough to persuade them not to do it. They're already rich enough to not get prison time.
