The report, from the Network Contagion Research Institute at Rutgers University, could raise new concerns about whether Beijing influences the content on the popular video app. Representative Josh Gottheimer, Democrat of New Jersey, said the report showed that TikTok was “a tool to brazenly spread disinformation and suppress content that undermines the Chinese government.”
Topics suppressed in the US are underrepresented on Reddit
See? I too can make obvious statements.
I love the irony that people nuke your comment
Assuming you aren’t one of the many bots infesting Lemmy…
Do your ““obvious statements”” come with actual research to back them up?
Yes the US uses bots but it’s mainly real people doing the job of downvoting antI-US (or pro-US depending on the sub) posts. Chinese people don’t use tiktok, they use Douyin, so this would be like reddit itself suppressing those posts, which may be happening but again, did you do the research?
Saying something is not research.
Ah yes, the “real people” like the disproportionate number of Reddit users at Eglin AFB.
