- TikTok says it will challenge in court an "unconstitutional" law that could result in it being sold or banned in the United States.
President Biden has signed into law a bill which gives the social media platform's Chinese owner, ByteDance, nine months to divest the app or it will be blocked in the US.
The law has been introduced because of concerns TikTok might share user data with the Chinese government - claims it has always denied.

Tiktok, Google, UA-cam and Facebook - all banned in China 😂😂😂 the audacity.
Yup and the list goes on: instagram, whatsapp, skype, zoom, linkedin, etc etc....US bans one app and they lose their shit lol
So, basically you're saying the US is no better than China?
All this time I thought the US was a beacon of freedom.
they have no shame. And fully based on stolen technology too.
They are not banned, they can operate in China, if they follow the Chinese laws that are same for all social media.
*Audacity wearing power* 👒
please ban it in EU as well
and do it now! Then ban all other chinese apps.
And the UK please! 😂
Or just use what apps you want to use and mind your own business when it comes to what other people use.
Tik tok free from all government forms of control? That's the problem 😂....? A lot of people hated this .....

Yes, correct. Tictoc is the problem.
It's funny that isn't it. They don't just allow Meta etc to spy on their citizens but they actively do it themselves too (NSA). The only reason this one is different is because they can't control it.

@@michaelgothenburg364TikTok isn't a problem. It's just caught between geopolitical tensions mostly waged by the US government against any competitor on the world stage. If China wanted your data it would buy it from Meta that has way larger database of users along with their conversations since Meta has chat features, TikTok doesn't.
Ban Twitter, Facebook and Instagram as well.
Ban phone
Why not ban TV and radio while you're at it?
Ban the BBC too!
@@baybarsedturner2 You'd have to go outside and touch grass, im not sure you'd survive
@@imagination43 I was being sarcastic.
So in reality don't want to really ban the app as long as the owner sells it so they can have an owner who is submissive and they can control / influence the narrative.
I think it's more to do with paranoia over China having access to so much American data
@@sweetnesscanwin589 Didn't seem to be that bothered before. This ban has been more in play since zionist claimed the app is anti semetic. Because they have shown in real time facts of their genocide.
@@abuhudaifah_0 I agree that this would have accelerated things massively, as the U.S has become totaliterian in its effort to keep the genocide going whilst pretending it isn't genocide. However, this was in the works before 10/7, with silicon valley big wigs publishing full breakdowns over TT's sign-up terms allowing 'the most invasive breach of privacy ever', backed (ironically) by the CIA, and this quote was pasted on headlines, joe rogan podcasts, and generally whipping up panic.
Dude nobody really cares about the situation in the middle east. TikTok is getting banned because China are spies
BINGO
He says he doesn’t share TikTok data with Chinese authorities but Chinese law requires full access to all data of Chinese companies.
It's not a Chinese company..
TikTok doesn't run on Chinese servers. Learn how tech works and reason logically. The only way China could get it is if US data centers gave it to China. If China wants your data, they'll easily buy it from Meta which has a larger userbase with chat features for user conversations. TikTok doesn't have that.
This is why so far US government hasn't provided any concrete evidence to back their claims. And US will definitely lose in court if they don't find solid proof to back their claim that China somehow gets American data via TikTok
But ByteDance is, which owns TikTok soooo …..
TikTok doesn't run on Chinese servers so the only way that China could get it is if US data monitoring companies gave it to China. US has provided no concrete evidence to support that claim.
@@ianmilliken2353it is
😂Tiktok is banned in China either , why doesn’t it fight China’s “unconstitutional” ban
My thinking as well. Can the owner also challenge the Chinese government?
I think because china is a lost cause in terms of social media
Well, aren't large companies in China forced under the CCPs oversight?
So, they'd be challenging their colleagues and bosses, the same ones mercilessly eradicating Tibetans and Uyghurs. From that, I'd say that unless TikTok is guaranteed to win, they'd never dare to step up and upset Pooh Bear.
a different version of it is still there i think
China surely has a different constitution than the US
Scared of the truth.

There are over 20,000 laws that regulate gun access, use, selling and purchase.
I guarantee, there is not an idea you have they have not tried already.
Banning them will not work for two reasons; 1, you could not do it if you tried. 2, it would not be moral. Sorry to say it out loud, but it is the last check and balance on government power, which is more important in the long term than a short term problem.
@@DreamEater-cb2cl Lies spread faster than bullets. Tiktok is not just a social media platform, its a spyware app designed to spread propaganda that makes the CCP look good and the West look bad. Its designed to destabilize the West and turn the CCP into the centre of the planet.

@@dougaltolan3017there no such thing as conditional freedom my friend
@@brandonjablasone7544 ohh, there's one to get one thinking 👍
The reality is that in this world, and I'll wager any world with more than 1 being, there is no absolute freedom.
No matter what the society (even total anarchy) there will always be restrictions.
Since we are considering the first ammendment, think of how many laws there are that restrict free speech. Shouting "fire" in a crowded theatre for instance. Libel, defamation etc etc.
So, how much of a condition is it to prohibit 1 stream?
Rational part over, let's get down to typical YT comments arguing..
Is it a 1st ammendment violation to prohibit someone from writing thier message by arranging dead puppies?
Its not a business though. Its a media app owned by a hostile power that wants to destabilize and ultimately subjugate the West. Winnie the Pooh himself said he wants China to be the centre of the world again.
Ban TikTok in the UK please and thank you!
Yes and round up those annoying influencers who influence no one and parachute them into iran to see if they can do some influencing there?
It would make no difference. The Chinese have many other ways of spying on you.
Beat me to it 👌
I wonder if the Tiktok CEO would have the courage to turn down the request from CCP to use their algorithm to manipulate the election of the US and UK😂
Why the hell do people use TikTok as a news source, you don't choose the news, TikTok chooses news for you, UA-cam at least lets you choose media, and the media is posting regular updates like this.

I'm concerned about Google's growing monopoly and its recent terms and conditions that suggest users can simply "leave their platform" if they disagree. This overlooks Google's pervasive presence across mobile operating systems, online services, and advertising.
Google's Android and Apple's iOS dominate the mobile OS market, limiting consumer choice and competition. Almost every third-party service has some connection to Google, giving it unprecedented control over the digital ecosystem.
The idea that users can easily leave Google's platform ignores the reality of its dominance and the lack of viable alternatives. This highlights the urgent need to break up Google to promote competition, transparency, and consumer choice.
Breaking up Google would address antitrust concerns and foster a more competitive digital landscape. It's time to ensure a vibrant and diverse digital economy that benefits everyone, not just a few tech giants.
W
These companies are massive and dominant because they are the best at what they do. There might not be any good alternatives to UA-cam, but it’s not Google’s fault every other video sharing site is just terrible.
You can argue that given their sizes, they can afford better R&D and develop a better product, but it’s still a better product. These companies didn’t pop into existence with billions of dollars. We shouldn’t be punishing the successful for being successful.
Granted being so early to their industries, timing gave them an advantage, but they made their investments at the right time and it paid off.
If you want a change, make a change. Stop using services you don’t like. Buy yourself a flip phone built in the early 2000s and stop supporting the companies you feel are already too big. Better yet, buy a cheap off brand smart phone and support alternatives. If you aren’t willing to deal with a slow and buggy off-brand OS to support potential competition, then that’s you not sticking to your principles. That’s just wanting the best out there and complaining that it’s made by the people in the position to do it best.
You don’t NEED any services Google provides. It’s not food, water, shelter, or air.
So I have this problem with UA-cam music and their lack of safety online, this is the situation..
UA-cam Music, particularly when used in a child-friendly setting.
Despite taking the following precautions:
Using an age-restricted account
Playing from a private playlist
Turning off music suggestions
Setting the playlist to repeat
Selecting soothing music excluding content from "The Book of Mormon"Inappropriate content, specifically "Hasa Diga Eebowai" from "The Book of Mormon," was played to my 19-month-old child, on multiple occurrences.
Even if you download the playlist and cast across to a Google mini, it still happens.
This incident raises significant questions about the reliability and appropriateness of UA-cam Music's content filtering and selection mechanisms. It is alarming that despite these safeguards, the platform can still select and play content that is clearly not suitable for a young child.
The ongoing email correspondence with Google Support over the past 10 months has reached 70+ emails without a satisfactory resolution, further highlighting the severity and complexity of this issue.
Thanks for your time.... cheers

TikTok runs on foreign servers like Singapore, UK and US (Texas) so China banned it and created their own version called Douyin that runs on their own servers.

"TikTok's privacy policy lists that the app collects usage information, IP addresses, a user's mobile carrier, unique device identifiers, keystroke patterns, and location data, among other data. Other information collected includes users inferred interests based on the content they view as well as content created by users. TikTok can share data with its corporate group, including ByteDance.
