Microsoft and Google have indian CEOs so they can penetrate the billion people market (indians are deeply patriotic, and it plays into overall brand loyalty) and these companies plan lower costs while doing so.
What's a few million dollar paid for a (specifically chosen for the purpose) CEO, when you can make billions by using it to gain grounds in a emerging market.
That's the thing. You don't know. Nobody knows except the CCP. That's the problem.
But you do about every other social media platform?
Fake news is not exclusive to a single platform. Teach your family about reputable news sources and stop trying to shoehorn US propaganda down everyone's throats like it makes you look smart. Tiktok learned everything it does by the likes of facebook, Google and Twitter.
Why do you think US social media is everywhere all over the world with near instant or sometimes even get higher bandwidth preference in some countries? If you don't think the US government has nothing to do with the level of complexities that entails dealing with local governments/infrastructure and planning, then I guess "ignorance is a bliss", and I hope the US government will bring you peace and much freedumb. Don't complain when they come in blasting tho.
Ban all social media if you think ownership is the point. Or is it only a problem now because you're not the top dog in internet surveillance? You schum come over like the ownership matters "now" when the pole position is from a different country is hilarious and very telling.
They (Tiktok) has owned the information for about 10th of the time social media companies became a thing. Everyone in the US was fine then while social media companies were sowing discord/violence/hate and genocide abroad, now everyone else is fine most US social media data is owned by someone else. Deal with it.
It's not the author who's out of touch. The same recipe US used to create mega corp monopolies is coming to bite you, it's just controlled by the CCP, LMAO.
Keep telling yourself whatever makes you seem you're on the righteous side. You're fooling no one. you do you tho.
ermagawD there's an toggle able option on my browser to turn off a feature I don't want?
And it's a free and open source software that I don't contribute to at all,
That's ducking it.
I'ma b̶u̶i̶l̶d̶ m̶y̶ o̶w̶n̶ b̶r̶o̶w̶s̶e̶r̶ w̶i̶t̶h̶ b̶l̶a̶c̶k̶j̶a̶c̶k̶ a̶n̶d̶ h̶o̶o̶k̶e̶r̶s̶ complain on an internet forum about how unfair it is that they are going against my principles and are making money off of it. They gotta ask for handouts like the rest of the opensource projects out ther. I'moutraged. They gotta learn their place.
"Tech youtuber"? this guy just regurgitates whatever is already trending and then adds in his own right wing idiocracy. He's "tech's" reaction video guy.
There's no reason for amazonaws.com to be on search engine at all. Which is just as simple as placing a robots.txt with deny all declaration. Then no user would have to worry about shit like this.
