Would you rather a Chinese-owned TikTok or one run by a consortium of Trump-supporting billionaires?
That’s the choice Australia is being asked to consider.
The Trump administration has outlined that a proposed deal for TikTok to remain in operation in the United States would transfer the control of TikTok’s US operations to a US company that will have seven seats on the board, with six filled by Americans. Donald Trump has suggested a consortium of US businesses, including Larry Ellison’s Oracle and Rupert and Lachlan Murdoch’s Fox Corporation, are involved in the deal.
They don’t have to think about it at all. The answer is don’t use fascist propaganda machine. So fucking simple.
The children yearn for the fascist propaganda machine!
Rupert and friends have done far more harm to Australia than China
Or just don’t use tiktok
You could choose your own interests, and block both. Just saying
I think it’s really interesting that TikTok is very different for Chinese people. It’s not the same app there as it is here.
China! The GOP are the worst evil.
If I liked short-form video, which I have not been very impressed with, I’d probably watch YouTube Shorts rather than either.
Dan Supernault has been hard at work making an open source, AGPLv3, soon to be ActivityPub Fediverse-linked shortform video service called Loops.
Youtube shorts are generally considered the worst of both worlds.
Most creators don’t actually understand the medium and Youtube screws up their own algorithm between forcing shorts on people but also basing them off of long form video watching.
