I feel like the TikTok ban is only the start.
The US is pissed that it couldn't 100% control the narrative on Israel genociding Palestine and sees the internet as the reason why. They've already put a lot of effort into homogenising and controlling the narrative on most big social media sites. I wouldn't be surprised if they started cracking down more under the guise of "stopping misinformation"
Oh yeah 100%. Liberals yelling about "Disinformatsiya" and other shit to try to make lying sound like a Russian plot. In practice "Misinformation" is anything they don't like or that htey disagree with or that challenges there narrative. Doesn't matter if it's true or not, well documented or not. It's a thought terminating cliche.
