Description

TikTok has taken over the social media landscape. Never before has a platform been as influential and powerful on populations far and wide. Yet there exist many problems that TikTok causes and exacerbates.   

US officials have become incrementally louder in their attempts to get some kind of ban or regulation on TikTok. Fears that American data is flowing to the CCP, and that American populations are susceptible to Chinese influence and propaganda only add to the potential threat.   

This episode will teach you how TikTok recommends harmful content in literal minutes after joining the platform, some examples of specifically girls being impacted by manipulated self-perceptions through filters, how much money TikTok spends on lobbying in the US, why influencers are susceptible to automation, which other countries have banned the platform, and more.
