US sues TikTok for violating children privacy protection laws
Attention Required! | Cloudflare
When do we focus on Meta, Google, Twitter, Kick, etc as well?
All these companies do the same exact data harvesting.
What about them?
Google already got fined $170M for COPPA violations in 2019. Twitter was fined $150M in 2022 for disregard of privacy laws. Meta settled for $1.4B in a privacy suit just last week. TikTok isn't being singled out here.
A fine like that is just "the cost of doing business".
Tiktok is facing a nationwide ban.
Please dont tell me that was an earnest argument.
And then Google, Twitter, and Meta stopped violating privacy.
... right?
So they paid the equivalent of a few day's revenue. Ticktock is being singled out as sort of the new 'red scare', 'how dare a non american company be this popular'
Laws apply only if you are Chinese.
Easier to emphasize a boogeyman instead of solving an actual problem, I guess
