A new disclosure reveals Instagram owner Meta spent more than ever on lobbing Congress and the White House as legislation to potentially ban its competitor, TikTok, was drawn up and passed.
The same can be said for Meta and X. They even stopped moderating them. So why shall we ban TikTok and allow Meta and X to continue working? I am up for greater scrutiny of social media, but one that’s applied equally across all platforms.
When Meta sold data to Russia via Cambridge Analytica they recieved the largest FTC fine in history, and that was long before the law was even conceived.
If the platforms did it today then they should face the full consequences the same as TikTok.
