Comment on Albania declares one-year TikTok ban over stabbing

The social media platform told the BBC it had found no evidence the person who allegedly stabbed the 14-year-old boy, or the victim himself, had TikTok accounts.

A few days ago I posted an English summary of a German language article about Tiktok in Austria (see this post: beehaw.org/post/17463020). There seems to be a clear pattern how Tiktok’s algorithm works, and it’s not good for the users, let alone teenagers.

Everything TikTok is accused of is either just a true for other social media/ website or more so. Thanks to Edward Snowden we know for a fact that US tech companies forward your emails and data to the NSA. There is no evidence of Tiktok sharing any data with any government. Yet it’s tiktok that get’s threatened with bans rather than facebook and gmail.
Instagram is notorious for making girls feel bad about their appearance and pushing them to anorexia and self harm yet no one’s proposing to ban it.
