I remember when tiktok was getting blocked. People got pretty riled up that they didn't have access to their propaganda app anymore.

The US fascists are doing a hard push on all social media in general ramping up at least since a few weeks ago. Seth Andrew's thinking atheist channel was dropped for no reason from yt, which by itself isn't unheard of, but several other popular religious debate channels (deconstruction zone, allegedly Ian, etc) are seeing a huge drop in opposition, religious callers starting at the same time when much of those were coming from TikTok and yt giving them a fair shake at recommendations based on their view counts. Yt is delisting or excluding from search results videos more now instead of demonetizing as well.
If I had the bucks I would short them big time.
Is nobody else concerned that "they" know when software is installed or uninstalled?
