    The whole of Pinterest, tiktok and Instagram are using it to make shorts.

      1. TikTok is China. Literally owned and operated by the state.

      2. Don’t compare for profit corporations to a hostile militaristic dictatorship.

        Not to defend China in any way, but its influence over the world is far more economic and profit-driven than militaristic. Often it’s hard to separate China from for profit corporations simply due to how much those corporations rely on chinese industries.

          A US-Based For Profit Corporation has some accountability.

          A Hostile Dictatorship Military Op would gut you and take everything you own at a cost because they just love seeing you suffer, if they could get away with it en masse.
