Something I didn't know:
Interestingly, in 2022, Meta hired a company called Targeted Victory which then contracted with dozens of public relations firms across the U.S. to help “sway public opinion against TikTok” by planting local news stories and helping place op-eds targeting TikTok around the country.
To say Meta would benefit from TikTok’s demise is an understatement but also concerning, especially in light of Meta’s censorship of pro-Palestinian content in the last several months.
Also, while this thread raises some important issues, it doesn't address every way that the bill is dangerous and an attack on freedom of expression, and is therefore incomplete.
