TikTok sued Tuesday to block a US law that could force a nationwide ban of the popular app, following through on legal threats the company issued after President Joe Biden signed the legislation last month.

    I wouldn’t trust any organization that has “truth” in its name. It’s like the car salesperson who says “Trust me” way too much.

    And according to Media Bias/Fact Check, they’ve got a clear bias and are not classified as factual reporting.

      It’s literally a video interview of Romney and Blinken talking about why TikTok had to be shut down.

        That does seem to be how the article (and Twitter comment) framed it, yes

          Yes. I’m not clear on why you went on a tangent about how untrustworthy the site linking the video is.

            How the article framed it does not mean that’s what the video was about

      Pretty sure they are referencing a publicly available interview

      edit: wild to me that people are downvoting a comment providing an additional source, but whatever I guess

        The tiktok hate on this platform is bizarre.

          I think it just got hyper-politicized and segregated along political lines during the reddit migration.

          You can pretty well predict the comment sentiment based on how the topic relates to political discourse. It’s not surprising that a liberal-dominated instance would view TikTok through a political lense, even if it’s super disappointing.

          Other privacy-focused instances might see this less politically but lemmy.world has become centered around liberal politics.

        Here is an alternative Piped link(s):

        Pretty sure they are referencing a publicly available interview

        Piped is a privacy-respecting open-source alternative frontend to YouTube.
