punishedkissinger posted:i think very clearly Congress just wants to ban platforms that are used by people critical of the US and theres nothing more too it. Same reason theyre doing everything possible to outlaw pro-Palestine protests. Tik Tok is doing nothing with its algorithm or data collection than other social media app. Might want to tell the EU that because they fined the poo poo out of Tiktok for doing exactly that.

But they do care about foreign governments mobilizing influence, both overtly (like with the phone campaign) and covertly (who can even say whats possible just by putting your finger on the scale behind the scenes.) Did the phone mobilization come straight from the CCP? (USER WAS PUT ON PROBATION FOR THIS POST)

Everyone gets news from politics twitter and politics twitter reacts to "this could be bad news for Democrats" like a cat reacts to a laser pointer. A year ago people were saying Biden would lose because a train derailed in Ohio.

Main Paineframe posted:Under current Supreme Court jurisprudence, none whatsoever. Under Brandenburg, even open and direct advocacy of violence is protected under the First Amendment, unless it is thought to be intended to provoke imminent lawless action. And I put that much emphasis on "imminent" because it is an extremely important element that the court set a very high bar for. If someone attends a speech calling for person X to be murdered, and then a few days later that someone goes out and murders person X, it's unlikely that this would be "imminent" enough to satisfy the conditions of Brandenburg and hold the speech-giver responsible. Thanks for the reply but wow this loving sucks a whole lot lol

Even Trump's speech on J6 doesn't rise to meet the Brandenburg test. It comes really close but I don't think it's there.

The original point (in the post you quoted) was that Tiktok isn't doing anything different from other social media companies that would give a reason to single it out. You then brought up the EU fines to indicate that Tiktok is doing a poor job with user privacy and I then pointed out Facebook is arguably doing an even worse job and got much larger fines from the same EU body. And yet there are no Facebook bans incoming.

I've never tried to claim them, so I don't know if you have to specifically ask for it or what.

I’m gonna need something more than that to believe that the CCP themselves organized or directed TikTok to organize the phone mobilization over the simpler explanation that TikTok used it’s platform to get people to contact their reps regarding it

Main Paineframe posted:It's also worth remembering that Trump banned Tiktok near the end of his term too, but it was held up in court long enough for him to be replaced by Biden, who canceled the Tiktok ban and opened some investigations into Tiktok's handling of user data instead. From a few pages ago, but this is inaccurate. Biden did not walk back everything Trump did on this point. The divestment order related to the Committee on Foreign Investment in the United States is still live, and TikTok's appeal in the DC Circuit was in abeyance as the parties tried to negotiate. It looks like a status report was due to be filed with the court two days ago. eviltastic fucked around with this message at 20:17 on Apr 24, 2024 |

He battled a series of health issues in recent years, including diabetes, high blood pressure, and kidney issues that required regular dialysis. Because it'd seem to be newsworthy with the House margin being what it is these days, but I don't remember any d.c. press having covered it.

Tiktok got really weird with user data, phone memory and mobile data scalping real fast. I recommend at least keeping the app off your children's phones. I also recommend no Meta apps and more recently no X app, among other things (et tu, etsy?), but if you have to triage, tiktok gets pinged doing the stuff which makes cybersecurity types the most generally nervous
