Government contractors have been banned from having Tik-Tok installed on any device they use since June 2023, legislation to force divestment was introduced in January prior, so I was tempted to dismiss this article front the first sentence, of course it did not start with oct 7, but fine, the matter became more urgent with the swell of content that’s, let’s say, critical of Israel. But the article is reaching by asserting that pro Israeli lobbyists have outsized sway and we banned Tik-Tok as a favor to an ally. There are other factors that freak out American politicians and their constituents (I just wish they were equally freaked out by American corporations doing the same things wrt surveillance and behavior modification) https://www.acquisition.gov/far/52.204-27 https://www.congress.gov/bill/118th-congress/senate-bill/85 |
