Ban TikTok already. Can someone tell me why this isn’t a good idea?
So you see this as specifically a tiktok problem and not a tech problem? Do you think it won’t/hasn’t happened elsewhere, and will be only a tiktok problem? I don’t use tiktok, or care about it but I feel like every problem with it is something endemic to social media platforms run by businesses atm.
Sorry, just blurting an admittedly off-topic idea. No, I don’t think TikTok is the problem here…
But why isn’t TikTok banned? It is cancer.
So is all social media. People were saying the same about Facebook. People are saying the same about Twitter. People are also saying the same about reddit. TikTok is just the main popular right now.
You’re posting on a social media platform…
A non-centralized platform though
Maybe it’s a bad idea for the government to completely shutdown a private business?
Maybe it’s because of the first amendment violations the government silencing a social network would entail.
Maybe it’s because we are attempting to be a democracy and have due process available to all entities that operate within the United States?
Just a thought.
Because its a overstep of government power. How would that be enforced? The US couldn’t even manage to get rid of alcohol let alone software.
