This report is very laughable. It looks at the number of posts with the same hashtag between Instagram and TikTok as a simple ratio. An alternate conclusion is that Instagram is censoring topics that don't align with the "Consensu

Even assuming that exception is taken up, it would be difficult to prove in a court that TikTok is using its editorial control to publish propaganda beyond what other social media platforms do quiescently. Propaganda is what advertising is.

No. It's about whether or not we're hypocrites regarding freedom of the press and freedom of speech, as well as the overall freedom of business.

Yes, it does Yamataya v. Fisher and Yick Wo v. Hopkins. And that protection extends to commercial entities: First National Bank of Boston v. Bellotti.

CP/M didn't have directories until 3.0, which was released in 1983. DOS didn't have them until 2.0. The backslash was chosen because the forward slash was used for arguments. This convention was taken from other timesharing o

What if they don't want to change owners? Why should a global company from Singapore do what US politicians want?

If you truly believe that social media is a health issue, then ban Facebook, Instagram, Twitch, Discord, and Youtube too.

All they had to do was destroy their existing platform by shoehorning a short video service whether their users wanted it or not. The recommendation systems in those copy-cat systems are very weak.

Usually, these accusations are a form of projection. They have Facebook and Google collecting data for US intelligence agencies and assume China is doing the same.

Buy a Shenzhen Android phone, then. For $300, you get a stock Android phone that has all of those things.

Yep. At best, the "electronic device" was a distraction, and at worst, it meant you were a drug dealer. I can't imagine having a smartphone in grade school or high school. It's so alien.

The underlying legal theory is that schools are 'in loco parentis' and can establish rules while the students are entrusted to the school by the parents.

The policy at my school was that any "electronic device," be it a cellphone or pager, would be confiscated and held until the end of the school year. I had this happen to a (not yet modified) Radio Shack tone dialer.

I'd be pretty rich if I got $0.01 every time I was asked that. Also, it gives you the heuristics to decide if a code base is crazy and not redeemable.

They converted some disused offices into a sleeping area and kitchenette. If they used discretionary funds allocated for a break room, which is what it sounds like from the sound of the $3000 cap, I don't think this is a problem.
