I can go to China, buy a book full of propaganda, fly to the USA, and read it with no issue.

I can tune my radio to a shortwave broadcast from Mexico, and there’s not a damn thing the FCC will do to stop me.

I don’t even fucking like TikTok. It’s an amalgam of all the worst dark patterns developed by corporate social media. Of course, nobody in government gives a fuck when Zuck does the exact same thing. I think it really comes down to the fact that as a foreign company, ByteDance can’t play the same election fundraising games that American companies do.
