tiktok ban
Sorry I accidentally sent a double post. Please delete blank post. Biden signed
the tiktok ban. I personally think it’s a dumb law. All it does is give Meta
(FB, Instagram) more power. It is enough to have privacy laws as what exists in
the EU. No need to ban tiktok or force the sale. Also, for those worried about
the app being owned by Chinese. Well there are many apps and corporations
operating in USA which are foreign owned. You can’t stop them all.

Pretty soon, we will have facial recognition cameras everywhere and all of our
transactions will be tracked in real time. Just like those communists! But it
will be a free, democratic kind of slavery.

i think it’s creepy that despite laws in Illinois many of these dual
verification systems ignore it and still require facial recognition. I’m sure
more class actions to come.
I don’t think tiktok should be banned. My problem with that app is not who
owns it, but the losers it attracts. People who aren’t even 30 yet complaining
about how old they are. Straight up gen z kids born in the late 90s trying to
pose as millennials while calling anybody born in the late 80s and early 90s
elder millennials to make us feel like worse shit. Now even the boomers and gen
x are hitting up tiktok to complain about how old they are. It’s depressing af
and even worse than facebook because at least some of the liberal boomer vs
trump supporter boomer fights on facebook are comical.

tiktok doesn’t even have the suburban kid dances anymore, but is literally
just people complaining about their lives. there was recently some funny drama
though with a former coke head drug induced paranoid schizophrenic from los
angeles who is an expat in europe thinking an old woman who rented a home to her
wanted to be her lesbian lover.

long story short, the elderly woman was just trying to be nice but this sick
failed actress with a dirty mind thought the old woman was really a lesbian.
that’s how poor the social skills of many americans are these days.
