    In difference to ticktock thats temu shit isn’t addictive or a propaganda Mashine.

    But yes, both should be banned in the western world, but for different reasons.

      I don’t think either should be banned. We just need data protection laws. The government going after single companies sets a dangerous precedent.

      What the EU did with some of their compliance laws that targeted Google and Apple was set a number of users, so it wasn’t necessarily targeting a single or set company, as it applied to future companies too.

      Do you mean that if something isn’t propaganda or addictive it can steal and spy to its heart’s content?

      Also, there is a lot of propaganda and addictive things, especially from Meta, that seems to be okay 🤔

      Edit: poor reading skills

        That is the opposite of what i said.

        Yes but meta isn’t the Chinese government ordering propaganda. Meta definitely has problems but those problems are fixable, ticktock on the other hand will not follow such laws and since it’s the Chinese governments sock puppet they will definitely fight it.

          Yeah, I failed at reading this time

          Regarding the law abiding behaviour of Meta, well I don’t have much trust in that. But I’d say that having a court decision not followed looks like a better reason for a ban then voting for that in advance just in case

            Well, meta can be prosecuted in difference to ticktock. So i wouldn’t trust them either, but as seen with ECJ cases prosecution is definitely possible.
