Agree about #algorithm #bias from #TickTok and a #quote or two here...

===============
IS IT ALL THE SAME?
===============

🔴 If #TickTok vs. #Facebook #Meta, #Twitter #X, #Instagram, #Bluesky #YouTube #Google are all the same types of #bias then it seems like a lot of #hypocrisy / #hypocrisies happening.

⬇️ Sounds like these similar types of phrases below ...
(please correct / add ➕ your version )

🔴 " It's not #terrorism when we do it "

🔴 " If other countries do the same we do, it's called terrorism
- we are Freedom fighters so it's different..."

🔴 Other "#Freedom fighters" are terrorists. Only space for our version of Freedom / #Capitalism / #Capitalist Monopoly only.

🔴 " Only we get to do the #fuckery and #enshitification because that's also a #monopoly we want to control! "

I might be confusing a #Government with #Company here in this post - but also that seems like a 'company' of sorts with it's own similar #algo pattern (as #army company or #financial company helping provide it with #tax) - so it's hard to separate these kinds of competitive and territorial entities, one setup within the other.
#Government #Governments
#Company #Companies
#Taxes ➡️ #War or other 'smaller' #Oppression / #Depression

⬇️ and good points by others below...

💬 " The tiktok ban boils down to "it's only okay to use these #shady practices to try and control the #population if WE do it". "

💬 "...#American #social #media algorithms' #influence on American public #discourse?" ❓

⬆️ Above #quotes from thread:
https://mastodon.social/@randahl/113821931743187039

=====================
#MACHINES THAT HELP #MANIPULATE
/ DIVERT THE FLOW OF #PEOPLE
=====================

#COMPUTERS affect the whole world and those who uses it, not just #USPol #USPolitics #UKPol #UKPolitics
#EUPol #EUPolitics 🌐

===========
IN SUMMARY...
===========

So these sort of #quotes and arguments from same people [ #Zuckerberg #Musk #Trump #Bezos etc] have demonstrated their full alignment with what seem always about the same #monopolistic #power, #territorial #aggression, #spy / #spying #control, #growth using other people's #resources etc... to make their country and " #SiliconValley " seem great...

#USA #censorship #privacy #manipulation #brainwashing #Truth #SheepForHire #Control

Notable Quotes in article:

Rapporteur Sophie in 't Veld said of EU committee's report: "The member states and the European Commission should not sleep easy, because I intend to keep on this case until justice is being done."

She added: "Not one victim of spyware abuse has been awarded justice. Not one government has really been held accountable.

"The unimpeded use of commercial spyware without proper judicial oversight poses a threat to European democracy, as long as there is no accountability. Digital tools have empowered us all in various ways, but they have made governments far more powerful. We have to close that gap."

Side thoughts:

"At least the EU 'gets' the damage unlike AMER of COTS Spyware like #Pegasus & the unmentionable #FinSpy #FinFisher #Finsky Spyware that proliferates in the 100's of MILLIONS of infected clients using a #ForcedMDM system of Proxies for scriptkiddy like #MITM exploits for #Targeted #propaganda manipulation campaigns ON TOP of #SocialMedia networks like #Twitter #WhatsApp #Facebook #Snapchat #TickTok #Instagram & #Oculus for #TIA like campaigns of #HumanRightsAbuses both in person through coordinated harassment campaigns as well as non-organic interactions online and in-person. Basic #ChurchCommittee findings from 1975 onward in the #COINTELPRO program proliferation wise that still exist even in the 2020's."

Another mirror image #infosec callout of #TickTok that mirrors the same #usecases of switching the company name to #Meta that applies equally capabilities wise, globally, article;

🔎 Hmm, seems that #TickTok is leading the way trying to show #Meta how to act domestically and abroad on #SocialMediaTransparency by getting caught doing the same thing that #TickTok with it's #OracleCloud hosting in #USA vs. #Meta's SAME problems, historically in the #SiliconValley 🔍🧐 #infosec
