Honestly I don't even know where to start, just speechless.

This is just sooo bad 😡

#TikTok and #Meta = pure evil:

"maximizes profits at the expense of their audience's wellbeing"

"told us that it's because the stock price is down"

"maintain a strong relationship" with political figures to avoid threats of regulation or bans"

"advice to parents with children using TikTok is: "Delete it, keep them as far away as possible from the app for as long as possible"

"Nick said the reason for the prioritisation was that - in his view - the company ultimately cares less about children's safety than it does about maintaining a "strong relationship" with politicians and governments, to avoid regulations or bans which would harm its business."
This from the company that allegedly lobbies for and funds the push for ID verification, ostensibly to 'protect children' but really to harvest biometrics.
