Comment on US lawmakers vote 50-0 to force sale of TikTok despite angry calls from users
aniki@lemm.ee 6 months agoI’m not arguing it’s only tiktok. They all fucking suck. The question was how does TikTok benefit off children and the answer is advertising. That’s a fact.

But the original comment you replied to WAS saying it’s only, or at least primarily, Tiktok.
I only commented because, especially among the reddit and fediverse demographic, there’s a fervent dislike of TikTok specifically. I think some people have lost sight of the larger issue, that TikTok is a symptom and not the disease. But it’s an easy target because of its early reputation as a dance app for younger users, its alleged ties to the CCP, and its popularity.
