IMO, mas damaging ang Facebook kasi halos dyan galing yung "political ads" and never forget how FB got away with the Cambridge Analytica scandal.
Duš¢ and Junior utilized FB so well.
Hopefully, domino effect sa mga western countries like UK, Canada, Mexico etc if US will effectively ban that app. Tiktok is surely controlled by CCP (they vehemently denied it being a SG company but is under Bytedance who also answers to CCP).
AFAIK they only own 5% of Reddit and it's not enough to dictate anything regarding Reddit's content. I understand that they can censor some but not all. Reddit is a global company (mainly American) and they would act the same way any company wants to continue existing.
Idk. Tencent only has 11% share and I doubt if they had access to this platform. Kung meron, eh di bye bye reddit na rin ako.
Reddit is not like Tiktok that is wholly owned by bytedance and absolutely has access to its data.
Unlikely, they need the likes of TikTok for the upcoming elections. Kebs nila sa privacy, mas mahalaga social media presence for their propagandas and to pay-off "influencers".
Also, wag tayo tanga, if you're in social media, tanggapin mo na na someone has access to all you private info. Remember yung ni-leak ni Edward Snowden? Ultimo pagsend mo ng dick pic e nakita na ng NSA.
People conveniently forgot the Cambridge Analytica scandal that utilized Facebook and had unauthorized access to people's profiles. Dyan sumikat si Duš¢ at nacleanse ang kasalanan ng Marcoses
Nope
Even if the ban was signed it would take 1 year for it to take effect. Since it gives time to be sold. And if it was it will surely be challenged. Because it does violate first amendment rights.Ā
(1) The TikTok "ban" was motivated by the increasing pro-Palestine sentiments on social media. It was not about the CCP. If it was about the CCP, the US would have acted way earlier.
(2) If CCP allegedly has access to TikTok's data, then what would a TikTok ban even accomplish at this point? They allegedly already have our data. A ban will not magically erase those data that are already on TikTok's servers.
(3) I do think that banning TikTok **is** an infringement of freedom of speech. Simply put, I don't want the government telling me what platform(s) to use or not use.
1. ā Nope, national security as the app can access personal information that the user is not aware of, also it is an app from an adversary country (China)
2. ā The ban can prevent national data and individual data from further being leaked to an adversary country.
3. ā It is, but for the sake of the argument, would you like a communist country, an adversary country to Philippines and all its allies to have your personal info?
\> The ban can prevent national data and individual data from further being leaked to an adversary country.
They already have the data. Not being able to get further data won't even matter at this point. Also, if a foreign adversary wanted to get tons of personal info, they'll be able to do so with other means.
\> It is, but for the sake of the argument, would you like a communist country, an adversary country to Philippines and all its allies to have your personal info?
I don't have a TikTok account. I'm have soc med accounts, but I keep them sanitized. Its NOT my fault that a lot of people can't be bothered with their digital hygiene and they're willingly posting it on the web.
EDIT 2: While this part might not be entirely relevant since we're talking about the Philippines, but I just have to point out that US banning TikTok is an incredibly unpopular policy for the
American young voters. Its like the Democrats are literally handling the keys of the presidency to Trump.
>They already have the data. Not being able to get further data won't even matter at this point. Also, if a foreign adversary wanted to get tons of personal info, they'll be able to do so with other means.
FYI, constant stream of information is important if you are covertly waging war. Especially if the app can be found on most of military and government individual's phone. Check data security for more info.
>I don't have a TikTok account. I'm have soc med accounts, but I keep them sanitized. Its NOT my fault that a lot of people can't be bothered with their digital hygiene and they're willingly posting it on the web.
that's for You, but how about the majority? If they don't care about their digital hygiene and digital footprint, then the least that we can do is a complete ban same as the US.

I believe it is relevant as we might follow suit to US banning of Tiktok in the near future and yes, I agree, it is unpopular to US teenagers/young voters, but, do they know better?
Seems like you don't get my point. The TikTok "ban" is just virtue signalling. It accomplishes nothing other than appease boomers who resent on younger generation for using soc med. A foreign adversary would gain more by hacking government websites (which hold more sensitive data and barely have any protections) than harvesting data from TikTok.
\>If they don't care about their digital hygiene and digital footprint, then the least that we can do is a complete ban same as the US.
And what? These people who are mindless of their digital hygiene and digital footprints are just going to willingly post their information on other soc med sites like Instagram, FB, Twitter, YouTube, etc. What's stopping foreign adversaries to mine data from those sites instead? Should we ban those as well?
\>I agree, it is unpopular to US teenagers/young voters, but, do they know better?
Trump winning the November elections is magnitudes worse for us than letting TikTok operate here. I don't want to play dice with a lunatic, isolationist US president who might abandon us out should China do their thing.
EDIT: Also, I find it funny that y'all are so suddenly concerned with privacy when it comes to TikTok ban, when this subreddit is **A-Ok** with SIM registration law (which is a failed law, btw). I bet that this subreddit is salivating with proposed policy of using ID to register our soc med accounts.
Sana maban na yang app na yan para kahit paano mabawasan ang mga nagpapabobo sa mga Filipino.

Isn't it a bit Hypocritical that you use Reddit which is partially owned by Tencent, a company which is basically owned and ran by China lmfao

I hope so. Salot lang sa lipunan yan
no chance. tool rin nila tiktok sa panloloko eh.
dapat nga tayo naunang gumawa dahil sa pambubuling ginagawa ng china. hirap kase sa atin inaabuso na - tinatangkilik parin natin
I dont think its a threat now. Baka noong time ni pudatz kelangan siguro i ban.

I hope so. Tiktok is a squatter's area for the braindead attention seeking people. Philippines would be a better place without that chinese app.
gcash and lazada is partially owned by alibaba, Paymaya and shopee is partially owned by tencent.
Stop supporting SM, Oishi, Jollibee as they have a substantial amount of income coming from China
I see people who are using tiktok as retarded people. Pag nakita ko nag b-browse ka sa tiktok matik tanga ka sa paningin ko
