- Comment on Why Bluesky Remains The Most Interesting Experiment In Social Media, By Far 4 weeks ago:
Techdirt has been publishing and extremely high number of stories on Bluesky since it was launched, and all of them are praising the tool as if it were the beginning of a new era. And this just another public relation text for Bluesky.
The article on how BlueSky is cosplaying decentralization is a year old, but very good imho. Jack I-regret-what-I-did-but-this-time-I-will-not-screw-you-up Dorsey may have (and had) a lot of things in mind, but it’s not for the wellbeing of others (and it never was). And BS isn’t an excemption.

Yeah, nothing easier in an Orwellian state where you have all private data about all individuals. As Cardinal Richelieu famously said, “If you give me six lines written by the hand of the most honest of men, I will find something in them which will hang him.”

Are Hong Kong’s days as a global business hub over?
There is a new running joke in Hong Kong: locals mock their city for losing its status as the darling of global capital. As one joked, it is the newest UNESCO world heritage site.

Lawmaker Who Led TikTok Ban Bill Joins Private Surveillance Firm
Mike Gallagher pushed the bill to ban TikTok because China can “surveil its users.” Now, he’s resigning and joining an American surveillance firm Palantir.

Citing tbe article that “the International Version of TikTok has a long history of suspending or suppressing users who share content criticizing the Chinese government,” it might refer to TikTok users outside China.

One example:
TikTok Facilitates CCP’s Arrest of Uyghurs in China
The Uyghur Times has documented at least 20 individuals who vanished after sharing videos criticizing the Chinese government on TikTok between 2021 and 2023.The International Version of TikTok has a long history of suspending or suppressing users who share content criticizing the Chinese government. That is why you don’t see Uyghur activists on this platform; that is why so many people don’t know what is happening to the Uyghur people.You may not care, but we Uyghurs are clear about one fact: TikTok is the genocidal arm of the Chinese government.
You’ll find a large number of examples on how the CCP censors their web.

Yes, but China is strongly using this as a propaganda tool, e.g., by censoring any content that is not aligned with the CCP’s ‘official’ narrative. I know that ‘the West’ does that also once in a while, but by far not to that extent. You can criticize the U.S. or the EU or any government on social media without consequences.
That said, I’d say it is irrelevant whether or not it is a source of revenue, may it be Chinese or non-Chinese companies. I don’t use these tools bc I don’t want to be spied on 24/7. But that’s just my opinion, there is a large audience out there for such media.
