TikTok is also a pretty effective protest tool, which is also a threat to conservatives. It's just funny how they're so against the CCP rotting the brains of children but do nothing about the black box of YouTube recommendations and every American social media platform (until they started banning campaign misinformation)

VPn or virtual private network are not mentioned anywhere

Shit, they revised it then. I remember there was originally language like that in the original 2023 version.

Currently 0-2 today for spreading correct information.

yes haha, I agree. It's not a consistent position which is really dumb.

I'm glad they revised it!! It's still good to call it out as I wasn't aware of that being in an old version!! Sneaky little bastards
