US federal #privacy laws, a club so exclusive it has two main members: 1986's #VideoPrivacyProtectionAct (banning leaks of Congress's porn-rental records) and 1998's #COPPA, banning data-collection on under-13s without parental consent.

The US is a trailblazer in failing to enforce privacy law. The EU has only ignored the #GDPR for 7 years; America has turned a blind eye to #COPPA enforcement for a quarter-century!

#TikTok doesn't have to spy on kids (neither do #Instagram, #Youtube, or other services):

Rob Hughes@pluralistic Do you count the Electronic Communications Privacy Act as a member of the club?
HansWeil es mir aufgefallen ist, hier mal auf deutsch:
"US-Bundesgesetze zum #Datenschutz, ein so exklusiver Club, dass er zwei Hauptmitglieder hat: Das #VideoPrivacyProtectionAct aus dem Jahr 1986 (das die Weitergabe von Porno-Vermietungsdaten an den Kongress verbietet) und das #COPPA aus dem Jahr 1998, das das Sammeln von Daten über Kinder unter 13 Jahren ohne elterliche Zustimmung verbietet. "
Joris Meys@pluralistic wouldn't it be funny if this whole TikTok shitshow would force the US to also tackle the privacy violations by US companies...

Who believes Facebook or Twitter wouldn’t sell their data to the Chinese government, if that’s the real issue here? Or aren’t already?
