They’re not really though.
Brazil’s complaints are about misinformation being actively spread on the platform, andTwitter not only failing to moderate it on their own, but refusing to moderate when the accounts are specifically pointed out either.
The TikTok ban fundamentally goes back to the Chinese government controlling the company. Regardless of what TikTok and the government claims, only an idiot would believe they don’t have control over a social media platform based in China. Even if the servers are US-based, the Chinese government will have access whenever they want.

Government blocks company that is tied at the hip of adversarial country that has been caught red handed stealing military and commercial secrets for decades.
Same as:
Musk’s Starlink opposes blocking Musk’s propaganda network in foreign country
Seems legit.

Yet the stance against the TikTok ban is just as strong here on Lemmy.
