In difference to ticktock thats temu shit isn’t addictive or a propaganda Mashine.
But yes, both should be banned in the western world, but for different reasons.
I don’t think either should be banned. We just need data protection laws. The government going after single companies sets a dangerous precedent.
What the EU did with some of their compliance laws that targeted Google and Apple was set a number of users, so it wasn’t necessarily targeting a single or set company, as it applied to future companies too.
Do you mean that if something isn’t propaganda or addictive it can steal and spy to its heart’s content?Also, there is a lot of propaganda and addictive things, especially from Meta, that seems to be okay 🤔

That is the opposite of what i said.

Yes but meta isn’t the Chinese government ordering propaganda. Meta definitely has problems but those problems are fixable, ticktock on the other hand will not follow such laws and since it’s the Chinese governments sock puppet they will definitely fight it.
That is the opposite of what i said.
Yeah, I failed at reading this time
Regarding the law abiding behaviour of Meta, well I don’t have much trust in that. But I’d say that having a court decision not followed looks like a better reason for a ban then voting for that in advance just in case
Well, meta can be prosecuted in difference to ticktock. So i wouldn’t trust them either, but as seen with ECJ cases prosecution is definitely possible.
Truth Social: memeing a more open fascist back into the White house
Yea weird how that isn’t banned. You would think for someone who hates Trump so much, he would go after TruthSocial instead of TikTok.
The tiktok ban isn’t even happening until after the election, and the Biden campaign says they will be staying on tiktok until then.
But somehow this isn’t hypocritical according to libs because reasons. I took so much psychic damage in the thread about it on /r/politics
I like that truth social exists, terrible people quarantine themselves there and I’m sure it provides a convenient place to monitor extremists.
Iirc, Tik Tok can persist, just bytedance has to sell their share.
Where do I buy this credit card information?
Edit: fun fact American credit cards are the most sought after on dark web markets because of low security. All you need is the number and details on the card. In other countries you’ll get a code on sms or phone app to verify (3D Secure).
It’s a pretty simple process. First, you apply for a credit card from a bank. It helps if you have a good credit score but even if you don’t you can get a basic one. Then you start spending very small amounts on it. Doesn’t matter the amount, a few dollars every month and make sure you pay that bill on time. In the meantime, get a college degree, followed by some well paying job. Keep paying that monthly credit card bill on time though, and all your other bills. And then, a few years down the line from your first credit card, you’ll be able to get a few more with your good credit score. Hell, they’ll even send you free ones in the mail. Suddenly, you’ll have all the credit card numbers you’ll ever need. Banks hate this one simple trick!
Wow thanks. No need though, I got numbers for $10 and defrauded Stripe for $1000.
china pooped my pants
Temu is not nearly as interesting for US oligarchs as TikTok. If they manage to steal TikTok, the tech oligarchs just have to run another app but if they steal Temu they suddenly have to deal with the logistics of shipping dirt cheap physical products to people.
Or you know the fact that TEMU is a shitty fucking marketplace while Tiktok is a social media which can have much more influence on people which is what the government is accusing them of exploiting
Just to clarify that the actual law doesn’t apply to Tiktok only…
The tiktok ban is not about them stealing personal data the fuck? Why would they care?
Because personal data is the government’s data if it’s certain people.
A meme created by the rare person that has never used an e-commerce website.
You give companies your name, address, phone number, and credit card number when you shop online.
This has been a friendly PSA for the racist 6-year-old that made this meme.
Amazon has also been stealing people’s information and credit card numbers. eBay, instacart, even stores like Walmart and target. We have to stop this epidemic of people giving their addresses and paying online in exchange for items being delivered to their houses.
Facebook, Instagram, YouTube all in the corner doing the exact same thing just on American soil
Temu doesn’t give information the government doesn’t want you to see.
Ironically the us government banning TikTok is pretty much what China does with Western media iirc. So like. China bad, but we be like China?
