POV as an oldbie content creator about the US banning Tiktok


Decided to pontificate on the impending ban of Tiktok in the US, while many, many other data-harvesting and spying apps, like Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, YouTube, and all the other mainstream platforms, continue to endanger and exploit everyone. Moral of the story: mainstream corporate owned platforms will ALWAYS betray you--stop giving them unilateral power over your online existence, and self-host your content on decentralized platforms like Mastodon, Peertube, and/or your own web server, THEN link to your content on the mainstream apps. You'll rest so much easier if you're not constantly living on the knife edge of potentially getting obliterated by a couple of algorithmic ones and zeroes, designed by misogynistic, transphobic, racist, patriarchal, capitalist tech bros!!

Friendica | Frage: Höheneinstellungen Tiktok Videos?


Eine kurze Frage, gibt es irgendwo eine Einstellung mit der man die Höher von Tiktok Videos festlegen kann? Es macht doch recht wenig Sinn wenn diese in der Höhe, höher als der Stream/Timeline sind und deshalb nicht komplett dargestellt werden.

W sobotę poszedł w #OkoPress mój tekst o TikToku:
https://oko.press/tiktok-facebook-twitter-zagrozenie

> #TikTok stał się na tyle ważnym kanałem dotarcia do wyborców, że sam ten fakt wpływa na decyzje polityków.

> Ten problem nie dotyczy oczywiście wyłącznie TikToka.

> TikTok pomaga nam dostrzec, że wszyscy giganci kapitalizmu nadzoru są realnym zagrożeniem dla podstawowych procesów demokratycznych. Niezależnie od tego, czy za sznurki pociąga Komunistyczna Partia Chin, czy hiperkapitaliści z Doliny Krzemowej.

the thing about getting views from triggered gun nuts on #tiktok is yeah, it's a lot more views, but those views don't translate into followers, which is what I need to actually gain some longterm visibility. I get more followers if I talk about nudity, but then I'm pigeonholed into always talking about that, plus it exponentially increases my chances of getting a video banned for "sexually explicit nudity," even though I film all of them fully clothed.

how I wish I was independently wealthy so I could hire staff to do all the boring parts of #contentcreation for me and focus entirely on doing it for creativity's sake 😩


A boss is bitten in the bottom after being struck by one of the worst crimes in Finnish history, Strava’s privacy isn’t so private, and a private investigator uncovers some TikTok tall tales.

All this and much much more is discussed in the latest edition of the “Smashing Security” podcast by @gcluley and Carole Theriault, joined this week by @varmazis

All the more reason Tiktok can't be trusted and that Project Texas is a sham. They have been abusing data entrusted to them by their users for years and it didn't require the data to be "in China". Data sovereignty is a sham and jingoistic bullshit to start with. Is it encrypted? No? Then it is vulnerable. China, Texas, the ISS, doesn't matter. The only safe unencrypted data is data on a Space X rocket. https://securitycafe.ca/@globeandmail@botsin.space/110234264207587278 #InfoSec #TikTok

In the latest @smashingsecurity podcast the irrepresible @ThomLangford joined me and Carole Theriault, as we discussed a possible aCropalypse for Google Pixel users, house buying scams, and just why TikTok is being singled out for attack by... well, everyone.

in the wake of the New Zealand mosque massacre, the tech industry & many digital rights organizations managed to suppress/defang the #ChristchurchCall to end radicalization on #socialmedia while pretending to support it.

Now, "almost exactly four years after one of the deadliest neo-Nazi attacks in the modern age occurred, content celebrating the heinous crime can still be easily found on #TikTok." among other places.

Hmmmm, federated cocaine? 🧐

#TikTok and its algos should be a controlled substance 🧠 tightly regulated

(otherwise more bears in all nations will be using it all day and long into the night 🐾 🐾)

Może jakiś własny komentarz od redakcji ( @Gosia Fraser ) ?
Czy to znaczy, że już można bezpiecznie dołączyć do TikToka ? Czy jeszcze trochę poczekać ? 😆

My latest in Puck on #TikTok & a possible ban:

"It’s risky to build on someone else’s property. Ownership of our data, social graph, and financial relationships has great value. How many times do we have to lose our followers on a social network to realize they were never ours? Unless we have a way to reach them outside the walled garden, such as an email address, mobile number, or credit card number, then they belong to the garden, not to us. We’re just sharecroppers."

does my head in the way teenagers stare at their screens on #tiktok all damn day! All those 60 second videos with sped up songs. Sounds like chipmunks!


TikTok pushes potentially harmful content to users as often as every 39 seconds, study says

#TikTok recommends self-harm and eating disorder content to some users within minutes of joining the platform, according to a new report published Wednesday by the Center for Countering Digital Hate ( #CCDH ).

”TikTok is introducing Americans to a question that Europeans have struggled with for 20 years: a lot of your citizens might use an Internet platform created somewhere that doesn’t know or care about your laws or cultural attitudes and won’t turn up to a committee hearing.”

😒 "TikTok Admits It Suppressed Videos by Disabled, Queer, and Fat Creators

TikTok says that as part of an anti-bullying policy, it restricted videos that featured people whose bodies had “problems.”"

Ich hab die #Tagesschau auf Twitter gefragt ob sie bald auf #Pornhub vertreten sein wird?

Der Grund ist die Argumentation des leitenden Redakteur zu Sozialen Netzwerken. Auslöser war, das dass Flagschiff der deutschen Nachrichtensendung ab heute auch auf #TikTok ist.
