    If you're in the US and use , it has now been taken over. As part of the new joint venture, tech giant Oracle (lead by Trump ally Larry Ellison), UAE-based (Abu Dhabi) MGX and tech investment firm Silver Lake will each own a 15% take.

    Under the deal, the newly formed U.S. entity will 'retrain' TikTok’s algorithm using data from American users, while Oracle (Larry Ellison) will oversee the storage and security of that data.

    The latest update to terms and services will now collect your information when you interact on the platform;

    - Tracks your citizenship/immigration status
    - Religious beliefs
    - Mental and physical health diagnosis
    - Your race
    - If you're trans or non-binary
    - Sexual preferences, and more.

    Also note that some folk are saying they've been unable to delete their accounts despite multiple attempts.

    TikTok are pulling all political videos stateside, it's full on censorship.

    @gimulnautti @RustyRingit was sarcasmbut because there is no vocal tone or facial expressions on social media, we have to explicitly indicate when we are being sarcasticlike a (/s) or a winky emoji, whateversome people resent thisthat everyone should be able to see it. that the indicator cheapens their witokbut somebody will think you're serious, regardless of who is at fault, and then we get dramawe have to indicate sarcasmno way around it

    I don't think it takes billions to build a platform but it does seem that it usually requires millions to get more than a few people using it. I have accounts on loops, lemmy/piefed, mastodon, element and more. I've never met a person IRL that uses them and I've never gotten to know anyone in an online community (gaming, interest forums, etc.) that use them. Viewing my loops app makes me feel like I'm alone on an island. The communities I follow on Lemmy/Piefed will go weeks without a post. The communities I manage will go the same without a submission from the community. Now that my immediate family have grown tired of the bugs on element after I forced them to use it to chat with me, I am literally the only person I know on the messaging platform. I love open source but if I were the type of person that required a true sense of a well-rounded social community, I would use something like tiktok to scratch that itch.

    Interview with Francesca Albanese on her newest report, “Gaza Genocide: a collective crime”"The genocide in Gaza was not committed in isolation, but as part of a system of global complicity."Rather than ensuring Israel respects the self-determination of the Palestinian people, western states have provided it with military, diplomatic, economic & ideological support.https://www.abc.net.au/listen/programs/latenightlive/francesca-albanese-global-complicty-in-gaza-/105948956 #GazaGenocide #USPol #EuroPol #Racism #WesternComplicity #Press #News #BDS #palestine @palestine .

    Francesca Albanese spoke at the Together For Palestine event in London:“Such cruelty did not start 700 days ago. For nearly a century, the Palestinian people have lived under the weight of a brutal settler colonial project."“Britain planted the seed of this catastrophe with the Balfour Declaration, promising away a land that was not theirs to give.”https://aje.io/8v8svm?update=3963051#FrancescaAlbanese #UKPol #USPol #Europol #palestine #GazaGenocide #Racism #SettlerColonialism @palestine .
