Gregory's Server@aral @EU_Commission I think the difference is TikTok is a literally useless platform that does nothing except rot your brain. It is safe to ban with literally zero negative and many positive consequences.
The whole 'spying on you' thing should be secondary to the fact that it is a platform tailor-made to cause ADHD in young people. At least other platforms are a mixed bag of good and bad, tiktok is 100% all bad because its format doesn't allow for good.
@MakBerberovic @aral @EU_Commission
meta platforms are there as well. Deliberately creatnig ADHD, not just with young people. Deliberately creating conflict. Most viral things I see out of tiktok are some musical collaborations. Most links out of facebook are some heated arguments over controversial topics.
(Might be just my problem, I don't use either usually, and I only run into those links elsewhere.)
