Tiktok isn't about advertising. It's CCP propaganda. Studies have been done that demonstrate that the Chinese only version Douyin shows more positive content to its users and Tiktok shows far more negative content that has a measurable effect on the mental health of younger people.
That's uh... The NYPost article you're flogging. Which is brave considering NYPost is a rag.
To me that sounds an awful lot like TikTok being closer to good old American media than some Chinese psyop.
