With the banning of TikTok, it appears Meta now monopolizes social media in the US. Instagram, Reels, Facebook. Enough to build complete profiles of every American (even non-users, as demonstrated by Cambridge Analytica). As a non-US observer, I find it all quite fascinating.

China has banned Facebook, Google, Youtube, Amazon so why is banning tiktok in US such a big deal?

Idgaf TikTok is a cancer and is turning our kids and finally some adults into potato brains . Unless they change the algorithm on people’s feeds to show educational content I’m 100% for banning this thing

Lmao one can say that about all of the other social media platforms too

Worldwide, that’s 2 billion Instagram users, 2 billion users, and 3 billion WhatsApp users

I know a number of other countries have already banned TikTok — India, Afghanistan, Russia — but in my opinion, it is not as consequential as the US

It shall be interesting what happens

Cambridge Analytica harvested data from Facebook users. What evidence shows otherwise?

Meta can’t manipulate people who don’t use their platforms.

Meta isn't the only company doing this. Your internet behavior is tracked by multiple data brokers. Unless you're *very* vigilant and deliberate, your breadcrumbs have been assembled into a pretty valuable profile being sold frequently.

Hi all, I’d love to hear from PR/Comms folks about the process of transitioning from agency to an in-house role. What kind of chance does a PR pro with ~7 years of solid experience across CPG and hospitality brands, including a mix of global agency work and smaller boutique firms, have at going in house? Do you typically need more experience before going in house? Would be great to hear about various experiences from those that have made the transition. Thanks!

Rant: my boyfriend is so annoying with this diet! I GET IT. You want to eat healthy! But when you have your friends at our place every other weekend they order pizza and you devour most of 2 boxes! But when I want pizza or wings or burgers I have to hear a whole spiel. “Can we pick something healthier?” “You can order ___ but can I choose something else on the menu?” “I don’t knowwww” like MY GOD. Then if I order something for me he wants half or bites! Sick of it!!!
