This reminds me of Kung Fury, which has a very 80’s/90’s aesthetic. They tried a variety of ways to filter the final movie to give it the right feel for the time period. Finally, unsatisfied with digital methods, they ended up running it through an actual VCR.

Tictok shutdown for a week or however long it was. Then we see it’s CEO sitting alongside Trump, Zuck and the rest of the oligarchs at the inauguration. Shortly after, the service goes live again followed by user complaints about their feeds being different.

It’s not confirmed but the theory is that tictok is now feeding data to meta, or even running off their servers entirely, so that the US government has easy access to everything.

Tik tok submitted to the US government (probably for a massive bribe) so it’s here to stay so long as people keep using it.

Good! That shit needs to be phased out.

Not that it makes it any better, but that just seems like typical business practices. Almost everything we watch in America is an advertisement.
