What I don’t understand is the sentiment that China would want to let Tik Tok run amok but drills down on Douyin. All while at the same time they say “see China doesn’t allow Tik Tok either, it’s nothing like their child friendly great alternative Douyin”.
Hilariously, you can interpret what I said in two ways:
China do good by blocking kid access
China do bad by limiting kid exposure internally while letting tik Tok run amok internationally
I’m of the latter camp, personally.
