KOMMENTAR - Florida schirmt #Teenager von #Tiktok, #Facebook und Co. ab – das haben sich die sozialen Netzwerke selbst eingebrockt

Seit Jahren wehren sich die sozialen Netzwerke dagegen, den Zugang von Jugendlichen zu ihren Diensten einzuschränken.

Jetzt bekommen sie in den USA die Quittung dafür – zu Recht, denn die Mechanismen der Plattformen wirken wie Gift auf die Psyche Heranwachsender.

I have just experienced something really weird in #firefox for #ios. I have opened a TikTok video from 404 media about the zoom cashier in the browser (don’t have the #TikTok app installed). When finished playing the video I closed the tab. Then I noticed audio kept playing as if I scrolled to the next video in the TikTok feed.
The audio kept playing even with the tab closed / finished.
I was now in a different browser tab but with the audio playing… 🤨
Has this ever happened to anyone else?


If #TikTok was smart, they would launch a separate app/site for text & photos, & have it enter the #Fediverse (with #ActivityPub enabled by default).

Wow! 😮

#Sora just transformed my #Akkoma server (atomicpoet.org) into a #TikTok clone! And it’s phenomenal!

This is the kind of innovation the #Fediverse needs! Big thanks to @me for doing this!

...the #media, including #SocialMedia, must be made more resilient. Despite the rancid taste of anti-competitive lobbying by #BigTech, forcing a sale of #TikTok is a step in the right direction. ANY foreign media ownership should be scrutinized, in particular, if the owner(s) are not sole citizens of a country that belongs to #NATO (potentially problematic: #Hungary, #Turkey, previously #Poland,...

Wonderful debut podcast with Taylor Lorenz

“Should we ban #TikTok? + #MrBeast’s #Amazon deal, and what’s up with #ShrimpJesus? — #PowerUser with @taylorlorenz

“Taylor Lorenz kicks off her first episode with a breakdown of the proposed TikTok forced sale, AKA, ban. She’s joined by Evan Greer, director of the online civil liberties organization Fight for the Future. They unpack lawmakers' concerns—sifting through the politics and red flags behind the effort —and trade theories about what lawmakers hope to achieve with the legislation now in the Senate.”

Since billionaire Jeff Yass is in the news for his involvement in #TikTok and #Trump's #TruthSocial, here's our deep-dive look into the #GOP megadonor who avoided $1 billion in #taxes and poured that money into campaigns to cut taxes and support #election deniers.

Don't give this guy more money.

"The billionaire Wall Street financier is also a major investor in ByteDance, the Chinese parent company of TikTok, which faces a possible ban in the United States."

@allanb

Thanks. @MisuseCase

So only 30.7% of #TikTok users are older than 34, I.E.
Older #Millenials (Born before 1990)
#GenX,
#BabyBoomers, #SilentGeneration, and maybe a few exceptions from the #GIgeneration.

What is the source of this, BTW?

I can hardly believe the decline of almost 10% of #TikTok.

If I remember correctly, @TheEconomist podcast recently reported that about 50% of US residents are on the platform.


As the US considers banning TikTok
it is important to keep in mind the problem with the social media giant isn't legal jurisdiction alone. 👮‍♀️

The problem with TikTok is #tiktok

Except that *#Technofeudalism by (chiefly #US) #BigTech is a reality:*

https://mastodon.social/@HistoPol/111949124362576334

The #Chinese counterparts are insignificant abroad, except for #ByteDance, #TikTok's parent company.

Given that #Germany's #SAP has a 99% global market penetration rate* in #ERP system of international companies, it would need to be counted in as well, if it weren't in the #B2B market only.
The same is true for the Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company Ltd.

*not market share!

@EU_Commission @EC_Commissioner_Vestager @EC_Commissioner_Breton
above reads “TikTok significantly reduces the reach of AfD politician Maximilian Krah”.
I thank TikTok for restricting EU Nazis.

urgent:
Hereby I do notify you again and publicly that MEP Krah uses his secure EU infrastructure for organising and managing events which are directly against EU fundamental values and the German Constitution.
ENOUGH!
