This isn't quite as nefarious as I had guessed it would be from the headline:
"Factory TikTok, in other words, isn’t about workers documenting their own labor, but is primarily a marketing scheme devised by their employers, many of whom may be under increasing financial pressure."
I seem to remember reading something about Facebook being part of the reason TikTok succeeded while Vine failed? Facebook didn't see TikTok as a competitor like it viewed Vine, and promoted it more on Facebook? And now TikTok is a giant. ( I hope I have that right. )

- ssnistfajen 5y agoHave you ever heard of a term called venture capital? It's pretty neat and you should definitely learn more about it, especially considering the site you are posting on.
- shuntress 5y agoI think TikTok is also significantly more proficient than Vine (was) at predicting whether any given individual will engage with any given video.
