I don't understand what this has to do with US companies at all. It's about foreign companies.

Why do you think that Bezos and Zuckerberg have seen the light with the elections if the US government has nothing to do with these private enterprises?

Twitter and Meta are foreign everywhere else, everywhere else except China TikTok is foreign as well and apparently they all lick their respective governments.

  • And if Twitter and Meta are found to be interfering with national interests in foreign countries and get banned or reeled in due to that, how is that a bad outcome for the world?

    • it is a bad outcome because it means everyone is locked in their propaganda locality and theres no one to break the narrative. IMHO it’s beneficial to have a global network as we are living on a planet with artificial borders.

The government makes Meta and Xitter suppress Palestinian content, they can't do that to TikTok, so it's being banned.

  • This is demonstrably false as the discussion about banning TikTok predates the current conflict in Gaza by a long time.
