all the more reason to switch to #Loops 💙
why give our $, time, & data to the very #TechOligarchs who seek to destroy us?
Wow I'm happy I never used TikTok.

Last month’s Americanization of TikTok is perhaps the zenith of this strategy. While liberal hawks cheered the platform’s transition to the jumble of jargon now known officially as TikTok USDS Joint Venture LLC as a win for national security, they ignored the details written in the fine print. TikTok’s Terms of Service now explicitly include tracking of location and citizenship status (among other identity markers, such as sex).
Perhaps most dangerously, ICE is now utilizing advanced social media monitoring to perform “sentiment analysis.” By scraping TikTok and other platforms, they can monitor the emotional and political temperature of entire geographic areas, identifying resistance hot spots. This completely undermines the particularity requirement of the Fourth Amendment.

Hey people of #Mastodon & the #Fediverse
Is this an opportunity we can take advantage of to promote #Loops
Is anyone encouraging disenfranchised TikTok'rs to come to Loops?
The best way to promote it would be to bring big creators over. They'd have a chance to have input on improvements at the beta stage
& when we bring people to 1 platform in the Fediverse, we can connect them to all the others💙

Loops is even shorter. Feel like it is possible to post longer videos on other instances.
ah. well that doesn't sound promising😞
i started pestering liberal media channels about if they were looking at #peertube as a backup, then when i tried to use it, it was a mess
i don't know where the line is between rolling out quickly vs having ones i's dotted & t's crossed
i'm hoping that as more people come to the fediverse, more $ will come, then more infrastructure & innovation will come
just not in an oligarchic way 😘💙 #BreakTheOligarchy
