Ars TechnicaBill that could ban TikTok passes in House despite constitutional concerns
US much closer to banning TikTok, despite users' protests.
Agnes K@arstechnica maybe ban truth social instead? A lot bigger threat to the US
Freevolt@arstechnica Although I'm concerned whether it's strictly on a legal ground, I cannot but be skeptical on that "protest." How? By cranking up their public "pranks?"
jtsThis is the dumbest shit.
SaftyKuma@arstechnica TL;DR:
- GenZ is not on board with business as usual neoliberalism and posts as such on social media.
- Since TikTok is their most popular platform , they are going after it directly.
- So to punish GenZ, they are enacting CCP style speech-squashing under the guise of protecting us from the CCP.
The US Government is slowly pissing away what remains of its moral authority when it prioritizes destroying free speech over making sure the population is housed and fed.
