Utah became the latest state Tuesday to file a lawsuit against TikTok, alleging the company is “baiting” children into addictive and unhealthy social media habits.
TikTok lures children into hours of social media use, misrepresents the app’s safety and deceptively portrays itself as independent of its Chinese parent company, ByteDance, Utah claims in the lawsuit.
“We will not stand by while these companies fail to take adequate, meaningful action to protect our children. We will prevail in holding social media companies accountable by any means necessary,” Republican Gov. Spencer Cox said at a news conference announcing the lawsuit, which was filed in state court in Salt Lake City.
“We’re just looking out for the best interest of our children!”
A bunch of 35-45 year old Lemmy users bashing something they don’t use but something the kids do. Just like their boomer and silent gen parents.
You guys fucking suck. I’d say I hope you all have sad, pathetic lives, but I know you all already do.
It’s a Chinese spying and propaganda machine. Fuck off…
Can you explain how? All I see are lesbians and black people.
And why does China spying on me matter? It’s better than the West, no?
Fuck off troll
How am I being propagandized by TikTok?
Why does China having every single last drop of my information (they don’t even, barely a sliver) matter?
You need to back up what you say. Your Western brainwashed idea of common sense and obvious xenophobia/racism ain’t an objective truth in the world.
Yeah go suck xinnie the poohs dick troll
Still got nothing. You only have fear. You sound like those parents in the 1980’s screaming about the devil when a kid dared to listen to Twisted Sister.
Go suck more authoritarian regime dick, dumb ass. If I have to explain why authoritarian regimes who want to usurp global power by 2040 harvesting your data is a bad thing, you should just go check yourself into a mental institution. Like I said fuck off troll
You ok?
Im 23 and think its annoying, admitedly my response to things that annoy me is to want to stab it. So… maybe im not the target demographic.
