RandAlThorTikTok’s Algorithm to Be Secured by Oracle in Trump-Backed Deal
kennedyOracle will operate in partnership with the US government on everything from algorithm retraining to application development and source code review, the White House official said. It wasn’t immediately clear what role the government might have in oversight of the app, its algorithm and user data.
every article just glosses over the fact a major platform that people use to get/share information (also a lot of collected data) is about to be controlled by the US government and a few of the president’s friends. No one is talking about how terrible this will be its just "china bad’.
TealI agree and even though users should be concerned I think a large amount of people using that platform already don’t care where their data goes, how it’s used or what harmful algorithms can do to a person.
yeah which is sad really, the mainstream has unfortunately given up about it. The few of us who do are screaming into a void, it would take something apocalyptic. Thought the cambridge analytical thing and the election would make people see but money talks i guess.
