Oracle will be handling TikTok’s algorithm? Okay, so TikTok’s back-end workflow/decisioning engine will rapidly bloat up and will need to be completely replaced every two years. Got it.
Probably why they went for the contract. That’s some big money headed Larry’s way.
somehow I trust bytwdance a lot more than trump backed companies…
moot point though, cause I’m never on tiktok
This will be illegal in the future, and dangerous not to have received the latest cultural infections.
The police will have ways to know if you have not performed your memetic inoculation
By flashing certain patterns at you and observing your reaction with an AI facial expression analyzer
They will know you have not upheld your democractic duty to remain an informed citizen
You will be sanctionned for you dereliction of duty
and subjected to a memetic reification inoculation
which is a kick and painless procedure where you are simply made to look at a screen for a certain period of time while restrainedPlease drink verification can.
Blocked that shit on our household devices (and all our visitors and guest’s devices).
They’re going to push right-wing content.
That’s already started after they installed that IDF cunt as hate speech manager. Nearly everyone of my proPalestinian /anti Israel TTs have been muted as ‘unauthorized sound.’
It’s not desirable to have a foreign government in control of TikTok. But it’s far, far less desirable to have your own government in control of TikTok.
Great! What could go wrong with ubiquous policing with AI group controling a media platform so powerful congress called it a weapons platform…
With Twitter going down, TT was my next best option for finding niche artiste and fandoms. My algorithm on there was really good with showing me new artists and fandom creators to follow. Idk where I’m gonna go now.
Can’t you just use vpn?
I’m already in the EU, so under the UK branch of the subsidiary. Theoretically, I would be immune to the algorithm manipulation from the US. In practice, who knows. The UK hasn’t really been pushing back against US Tech interferences.
Secured by Oracle? So it’s going to be open source? \s
“Secured” by Oracle.
Nice. Another racist, sexist, homophobic, transphobic anti-American platform.
You can just say “American platform”.
So does this affect only US Tiktok users or is it the whole global Tiktok outside of China that will be sucked up by US?
I can’t believe oracle is still such a behemoth. I thought they dissappeared in the 2010s, but they’ve been steaming ahead doing evil things with shit tons of money this whole time.
It’s the same reason IBM still exists. Massive multinational / government contracts keep them alive and healthy.
And Microsoft. Ain’t nobody buying SharePoint because it’s good.
Wasn’t Microsoft in a bad state during Balmer and it took Nadella to change focus from Microsoft developed products to cloud and selling Linux that saved it?
Wonder how it would be if they implement it in their database systems. Queries would no longer return data you want, but instead return data you might like to see.
The point of this is specifically to silence those talking about Palestinian genocide.
Ding ding ding. Anyone who’s been paying attention since the beginning should know this.
That’s crazy, now instead of staying the fuck away from a shitty Chinese social media I’ll stay the fuck away from a shitty US social media.
