TikTok: Cheerfulness and censorship
Never before has a #platform grown as fast as TikTok. We have gained exclusive insight into its content moderation and are publishing excerpts from its moderation rules: TikTok operates a sophisticated system to identify, #control, #suppress and direct content. The platform can throttle videos of #protests and #demonstrations according to its rules.
No #app has been downloaded as often as TikTok in the past year. The video sharing platform is growing rapidly. In November 2019, TikTok broke the 1 billion-user barrier – faster than any other social network ever before. The video app and its culture are currently so popular with children and young people that even the Tagesschau (the major German public TV News programme) now has its own account there.
However, #research by netzpolitik.org shows that TikTok is currently able to #suppress videos of political protests and demonstrations and additionally determine which content is visible, through a variety of means.
☣️ Exclusive insight into content moderation
For this research, netzpolitik.org spoke to a source at #TikTok, looked at moderation criteria and communications, and experimented with specially created accounts to see how well videos with China-critical content are visible on the platform.
TikToks moderation rules, of which netzpolitik.org was able to see different versions, are remarkably thin and widely interpretable – even for the moderators themselves. The strategy, however, is clear: certain content is given the widest possible reach, while others are systematically suppressed.
The successful platform belongs to the #Chinese #technology company #ByteDance. Already in September, the Guardian reported on leaked documents that detailed how TikTok censored political statements on the #Tiananmen #massacre or the independence of #Tibet. The protests in Hong Kong, which are currently attracting worldwide media attention, are virtually invisible on TikTok between selfies and singalongs, even though the app is available in Hong Kong.

Ep 51: The Indo-Pak Conflict
Darknet Diaries: The Indo-Pak Conflict
#Kashmir is a region right in between #India, #Pakistan, and #China. For the last 70 years Pakistan and India have fought over this region of the world, both wanting to take #control of it. Tensions sometimes heat up which can result in people being killed. When tensions get high in the real world, some people take to the #internet and #hack their rivals as a form of protest. In this episode we’ll explore some of the #hacking that goes on between India and Pakistan.

Don’t be duped by performance, Apple’s M1 silicon is all about platform control
With the dust settling on Apple’s first Arm-based Macs and new M1 chip announcements, it’s time to take stock of what this means for one of the industry’s biggest computing ecosystems. The transition to Arm CPUs is a major shift that will be felt across the industry in the coming years. The energy efficiency benefits for consumers are obviously great, but the change is likely to be a headache for software developers who need to go back and rebuild their apps.
While Apple looks to have produced some very powerful silicon based on initial reviews and testing from the tech-sphere, the need for emulation means we should take its performance claims with a pinch of salt. After all, software emulation takes a toll on both performance and power consumption. We’ll be putting the chip and one of Apple’s new laptops through their paces very soon to find out for sure.
However, what we can say is that this transition is already proving to be a pretext for greater ecosystem control.

Apple made lots of performance claims about its Arm M1 chip for Macs. But what Cupertino really wants is more hardware and software control.

“we have no idea what the data looks like.”
“It is already concerning that full approval is being based on 6 months’ worth of data despite the clinical trials designed for two years,” she said. “There is no control group after Pfizer offered the product to placebo participants before the trials were completed."

Sent a chilling message regarding the future direction of central bank digital currencies (CBDCs). All FED Chairs [world wide] report to this fellow. He states - without stuttering - the objective of the BIS is to END CURRENCY (to control the people). This means no more private money. No more cash belonging to the people. From this viewpoint - access to money is a PRIVILEGE - and may be revoked at will.
