- ioulaum 2y agoThe position of governments in society, and thus the kinds of solutions they are biased towards, tend to be similar. It's funny seeing things like US Gov trying to control free speech, while being restricted by the Constitution. They do still manage via back-channels.
- ioulaum 2y agoThere's also the Section 702 angle... US can get all US social media to spy on non-US citizens without anything in the way of legal pushback. US citizens have rights. Non-US citizens, do not. I think the problem with TikTok under their audited, non-interference under their Project Texas is... That they might not easily hand over data, or suppress views that US Gov isn't a fan of. Which will change once TikTok is owned by a US company.
