- hmmokidk 2y agoIf any app is brainwashing people it's the zombie of twitter. Not tik tok.

Forcing the data to be removed from Canada doesn't seem to be accomplishing anything positive for the Canadian government or people.

That's the smoke and mirrors to get the populist support necessary to ban it. Meta and Google are feeling threatened that their dominance on North America is being tested and they are flexing their lobbying muscles.
