TikTok could be banned. Soon. OR it might not get banned. Soon or ever. I hope this has been helpful

There are a lot of bad takes on the potential TikTok ban. You can actually read the act for yourself: www.congress.gov/bill/118th-c...

Screenshot of 21sr Century Peace Through Strength Act. Reads: Protecting Americans from Foreign Adversary Controlled Applications Act

(Sec. 2) This section prohibits entities from distributing, maintaining, or updating a website, desktop application, mobile application, or augmented or immersive technology that is operated, directly or indirectly, by ByteDance, Ltd., TikTok, or by an entity that (1) is owned or controlled by a foreign adversary, and (2) the President determines poses a threat to national security. The prohibition comes into effect 270 days after enactment for ByteDance or TikTok, or 270 days after the presidential determination for any other foreign adversary application. The prohibition does not apply if the application is divested from foreign adversary control prior to the end of the 270-day period. Upon certain certifications, the President may extend the deadlines by up to 90 days one time.

Part of the issue with ad monetization on social media is that it incentivizes people to react to or summarize news content for the most reward instead of actually doing journalism, which is also disincentivized with legal threats

Made a TikTok vid last year about my thoughts on creator vs influencer. In just a short year, I feel like things have changed again. Influencers to me, read heavily like celebrities now. Esp once they rely less on income filtered via social media platforms www.tiktok.com/t/ZP8L3V9n5/
