Re:Russia killed its tech industry on Sunday April 23, 2023 @10:27AM (#35676508)
Russian news is control by the state. US/Western mass media news are control by "private company" that also have to align with the either the democrat party narrative or republican narrative. Both party must also align with the state.
People they do not lose everything this round of collapse will invest in the next round... lol

The more stupid things you look for, the more stupid things you see. Its the same in the us as it is in china.

Re:South Dakota first to ban TikTok on state-owned devices on Friday December 02, 2022 @05:21PM (#33837753)
you are brainwashed if you think that is true and/or never used (tiktok AND douyin)
there is no connection between rich powerful companies in the us and government /s
App needs to meet the standards of local laws, its not like China is just targeting American apps. The US has laws bases on color tone lol

The crazy part is taking the huge salary then demanding your employer take on some social justice cause that they have been neutral on or actually already accommodating on.
Um, don't use it if you care so much?

Re:TikTok profits from livestreams of families begging on Thursday October 13, 2022 @06:23PM (#33197242)
Are these refugee begging because your evil country color revolution them and cause them to be in that situation? That should be the real story which is missing... like propaganda
Re:TikTok profits from livestreams of families begging on Thursday October 13, 2022 @02:31PM (#33194704)
TikTok isn't promoting the begging industry and does not offer "charity" type services. There is lots of cost structure around the OMG tiktok took 69$ that the reporter has no insight on such as "app store" fee, possibly bandwidth fees, or whatever. If tiktok was heavy handed in moderation of content, the article would of been written "Evil CCP censors refugees attempting to make money via streaming"

The giver buys 100tiktok coin for 100usd. The receiver gets 100tiktok coins from the giver. For google/apple to get there 30% cut, the 100tiktok coin can't convert back to 100usd.

Its pretty clear that anything about China will always have some negative aspect to it in western media. Like there are literally articles like "China has made xx% adoption of green energy, but at what cost?"
Re:TikTok profits from livestreams of families begging on Thursday October 13, 2022 @11:43AM (#33192550)
Considering the amount of video bandwidth a person watches and the lack of obvious ads, 55% isn't egregious in the big picture of things.
