@themarkup reports on how Chinese migrants are following step-by-step instructions on Douyin, the equivalent of TikTok, in order to immigrate to the United States via Central South America. These include tips on clearing your chat history, bribing law enforcement officers and more. On arrival in the US as asylum seekers, they find a reality they were unprepared for.

Der chinesische Billig-Onlinehändler Temu lockt mit extremen Schnäppchen, steht aber auch immer wieder in der Kritik. Dank einer neuen Einstufung der EU muss die Plattform nun viele Auflagen umsetzen, sonst drohen empfindliche Strafen.

Abgesehen davon, dass ich TikTok nicht mag weil ich deren Zweck nicht einsehe, nutzen es sehr viele und vor allem sehr junge Menschen und dies auch kommerziell. Wie eben YouTube & Co. und eigentlich nicht viel anders aber auch als politische Propaganda eine Konkurenz zusätzlich.
