MODERATORS
This is the best summary I could come up with:
Sen. Josh Hawley, R-Mo., asked the Biden administration Tuesday to ban TikTok in part because of how the app has handled content about the Israel-Hamas war.
“While data security issues are paramount, less often discussed is TikTok’s power to radically distort the world-picture that America’s young people encounter,” he wrote.
In recent weeks, TikTok has come under new scrutiny from members of Congress and tech investors who say the platform favors pro-Palestinian content.
The perceived performance of pro-Palestinian content on the platform depends on how you parse TikTok’s data, according to an NBC News review of hashtags related to the conflict.
“Our Community Guidelines apply equally to all content on TikTok and we strongly reject any of the baseless claims to the contrary.
The Biden administration has been negotiating a potential security agreement with TikTok to try to address data privacy concerns it’s expressed about the app.
