: "We don’t have any way of validating whether the hashtags we selected captured all of the content on TikTok in the US about the war in Gaza. However, there are some signs we had decent coverage. Some of the hashtags were popular enough that we observed ‘trend chasing’, where creators will add many trending hashtags to unrelated posts. We also know our initial hashtag selection was overbroad because we had to remove some after our collection. This doesn’t mean we captured all relevant hashtags, of course! The research API lets you query data by hashtag, description, and user, so to a certain extent, you need to know what you’re looking for. The research API returns data about public videos, video comments, and user accounts. It allows fine-grained searching by keyword and hashtag, but there is no equivalent of the Twitter firehose. We are thinking through methods to estimate ‘top content’, and prior work from other researchers has attempted this for other platforms. Because of the very strong imbalance of views to content, to understand what (most) people are seeing, the top 1% of content appears to be a pretty good approximation. However, it clearly wouldn’t help researchers who wanted to study posting activity, either by itself or in connection to view activity."

As TikTok Moral Panic Spreads, EU to Probe Meta for Failure to Curb Foreign Interference

The EU apparently believes that Meta has insufficient moderation to curb ads that undermine the electoral process. Nice timing.

▶ TikTok Responds To Potential Ban in the United States

TikTok is suing the United States government in an attempt to stop the enforcement of last month’s bill, which would ban the app in the U.S unless its Chinese owner ByteDance sells up.

The lawsuit argues that the bill is an “unprecedented violation” of the First Amendment, and says that invoking national security concerns is not a sufficient reason for restricting free speech. NBC News has more, but we’re keen to hear what you think. Do you agree with the bill?

@TechDesk I‘ld like to use by challenging them with their behavior directly … I don’t think that avoiding free speech is a good strategy to talk … especially I‘ld like to use the hashtag , what is much bigger on the network …

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.

🧵 …nun ja, dies war nur eine Frage der Zeit. Es war mehr als vorhersehbar, dass TikTok sich wehrt um den Markt abzugeben und dabei zu verlieren. Meine Meinung und Kritik diesbezüglich, siehst du in den Toots oben.

»Netzpolitik: Tiktok-Mutter Bytedance will mit Klage drohendes US-Verbot abwenden.
Geforderter Verkauf "weder kommerziell, noch technologisch, noch rechtlich" möglich.«

🧵 …wie schon weiter oben mal erwähnt, nun wird TikTok umfangreich kritisiert aber einige andere populäre Mini--Dienste sind nicht anders und lösen absolute mentale Sucht schädlich aus.

»Tiktok, Instagram Reels und Youtube Shorts: Sind wir süchtig nach Kurzvideos?
's, Reels und Shorts ziehen Nutzer:innen regelmäßig in ihren Bann. Als zählt das offiziell noch nicht. Ungefährlich sind die Plattformen dadurch aber noch lange nicht.«

🧵 …nicht nur das was in den oberen Toots über TikTok steht, sondern auch des hier. Das sieht nach dem inneren Beunruhigen von Gesellschaften um die Macht über sie und Staaten erleichtert zu erhalten.

»Radikalisierung junger Männer:Durch TikTok zu #islam'istischer Weltsicht:
#Homophobie, Verbot außerehelichen Geschlechtsverkehrs und keine Freundschaft zu Nicht-#Muslim'en – Diese Inhalte finden sich auf #TikTok - und sie radikalisieren #Jugendliche
