Welcome to The Nonlinear Library, where we use Text-to-Speech software to convert the best writing from the Rationalist and EA communities into audio. This is: On the Latest TikTok Bill, published by Zvi on March 13, 2024 on LessWrong. TikTok Might Get Banned Soon This attempt is getting reasonably far rather quickly, passing the House with broad support. Alec Stapp: TikTok bill to remove influence of CCP: passed unanimously out of committee GOP leadership says they'll bring it to the floor for a vote next week Biden says he'll sign the bill if passed Can't believe it's taken this long, but should be done soon. It's been obvious for years that we shouldn't let China control a black-box algorithm that influences >100 million American users. JSM: Can this stand up to court scrutiny though? Alec Stapp: Yes. It then passed the house 352-65, despite opposition from Donald Trump. Manifold is as of now around 72% that a bill will pass, similar to Metaculus. Consensus is that it is unlikely that ByteDance will divest. They will fight in court, and if they lose they likely are not bluffing about letting TikTok be shut down or banned in America, Metaculus only has a 12% chance they will sell this year. The bill now goes on to the Senate. I see about a 43% chance it passes there within the month, and a 71% chance it will happen this year. Those numbers seem reasonable to me. The main purpose of this post is to go over arguments for and against the bill, and also what the bill actually would and would not do. I have long been in favor on principle of banning or forcing divestiture of TikTok. Then I saw the Restrict Act, and that was clearly a no-good, very-bad bill. My view of the current bill, after a close reading, is that it is vastly better, and about as good as we could reasonably expect. It seems positive and I hope it passes, whether or not ByteDance folds and agrees to divest. I expect it to pass constitutional muster, although one cannot be sure. To make them easy to find: Here is Noah Smith's case for banning TikTok. Here is Matthew Yglesias's case for banning TikTok. This is a profile of Make Gallagher, who is leading the charge to pass the bill. I go over various arguments for and against the bill, and for and against forcing divestiture of or banning TikTok in general, as well, as well as other related developments. The good argument against the bill is the libertarian concern about expansion of government powers, and what else the government might do. I do not believe it should carry the day on this bill, but I definitely get why one might think so. Execution is Everything I continue to strongly be in favor, in principle, of banning or forcing divestiture of TikTok, if we could do exactly that and only that, without otherwise attacking free speech and free enterprise or expanding the power of the state. TikTok continues to be Chinese spyware. It also continues to be an increasing point of vulnerability for China to put its thumb on American culture, politics and opinion. It continues to promote unhealthy patterns of use. Many want to quit, or know they would be better off without it, or at least would take very little money to quit despite spending tons of time on the app, but feel locked in by a combination of a Skinner box and social dynamics of everyone else being there. All the dynamics around this round of the fight make me more confident that it is important to get this done. So yes, if there was a clean way to get rid of it or force divestiture, great. However, as I said a year ago in Given the Restrict Act, Don't Ban TikTok, the proposed S 686 or the Restrict Act would have vastly expanded government powers over the internet, a cure far worse than the disease. So for me, ultimately, it comes down to the bill. Is it a good bill, or a bad bill? More precisely, is this a bill we can live with? Daniel Lippman (Politico): "They're trying to use these scare tactics to have a bill that gives the government unprecedented ...
TikTok is closer to getting banned in the US if some lawmakers have their way. If the bill is approved, TikTok would be forced to sell to stay available in app stores. And users are freaking out. Then we talk about how Reddit is going to go public, and Reddit leadership admits that the stock will be volatile because of its user base. Is this going to be BuzzFeed 2.0? ➡️ Tip Jar and Fan Support: http://ClownfishSupport.com ➡️ Official Merch Store: http://ShopClownfish.com ➡️ Official Website: http://ClownfishTV.com ➡️ Audio Edition: https://open.spotify.com/show/6qJc5C6OkQkaZnGCeuVOD1 ➡️ Gaming News: https://open.spotify.com/show/0A7VIqE3r5MQkFgL9nifNc Additional Context: TikTok's future in the U.S. is looking increasingly precarious, folks. In the corridors of power, there's serious chatter about changing the game for the social media giant. Legislation is being mulled over that could give the Biden administration new tools to put the brakes on TikTok due to national security concerns. This comes amid fears that TikTok's parent company, ByteDance, could allow user data to fall into the wrong hands, i.e., the Chinese government. Democratic Senator Mark Warner, who's at the forefront of pushing the Restrict Act, mentioned that the bill aims to address these security risks by giving the Commerce Department the power to review, block, or mitigate transactions involving foreign tech that could threaten national security. However, the path to enacting this legislation isn't a walk in the park. TikTok has reportedly thrown $100 million into lobbying efforts, showing they're not going down without a fight. This bill's fate is still up in the air, with discussions on amendments to make its intentions crystal clear and address concerns about overreach. In a bold move earlier in March, the U.S. House Foreign Affairs Committee voted to arm President Biden with the authority to ban TikTok. This would mark one of the most significant restrictions against a social media platform in the U.S., stirring up a mix of support and opposition from various quarters. The bill, championed by Republican chair of the committee, Representative Michael McCaul, argues that TikTok poses a national security threat, likening it to a "spy balloon" in users' phones. Yet, Democrats on the committee have pushed back, calling for more debate and expert consultation. Meanwhile, in the corporate jungle where Reddit roams, there's talk of going public. But hold onto your hats, folks, because Reddit's leadership is signaling a rollercoaster ride ahead, thanks to its vibrant and unpredictable user base. This has some folks wondering if we're looking at BuzzFeed 2.0, given the rocky road BuzzFeed encountered post-IPO, with its stock taking a nosedive amidst a digital advertising slump and the challenge of turning a profit in the crowded online space. Both TikTok's potential ban and Reddit's market debut highlight the unpredictable nature of digital platforms and their complex interplay with global politics, regulatory environments, and the financial markets. As these stories develop, they'll undoubtedly provide plenty of fodder for thought (and perhaps a few memes) about the future of our online lives. Stay tuned, as this saga is far from over.

TikTok's potential risk to US national security is raising tough questions about how to address the challenge—legally. With 150 million Americans' personal data possibly falling into the hands of the Chinese Communist Party and fears of election interference via a foreign-controlled algorithm, TikTok finds itself in the harsh glare of the U.S. government's scrutiny. Broad bipartisan support favors aggressive action to ban the platform, but is such action even constitutional? Join Joe Cohn, Director of Legislative and Policy at the Foundation for Individual Rights and Expression, and Hagar Chemali, former spokesperson for the U.S. Mission to the UN. Together with host Ron Steslow, they dissect the potential impact of the RESTRICT Act that could not only ban TikTok but delegate sweeping power to the executive branch to go even further.Tune in to explore the delicate balance between national security and preserving free speech rights.

Have you heard about something called the RESTRICT Act? Well, if you haven't, then you better get to know what this act is all about, because as you probably guess it goes way beyond just banning Tiktok. It may indeed actually be used to restrict social media platforms across the board. Joining me today to talk more about that and how we can effectively push back is New York Times bestselling author and book strategist, Joanna Hunt. Joanna is a master at getting information disseminated in an era of censorship and government overreach. She has an elite list of clientele, reaching audiences of literally millions around the globe. Highlights: ● “Anytime the government says - we are here to help, we are here for your safety - that's when we have to slow down, take a step back, and lift the hood if you will.” - Joanna Hunt ● “Basically, what would happen if the RESTRICT Act gets passed is that the government would pretty much have unfettered access to take control of any technology platform, communication platform, social media, you know, you name it, it's the whole thing. And that should really make every American stand up and really dig in on this.” - Joanna Hunt ● “We should all be screaming, calling our senators, and making noise about this.” - Joanna Hunt ● “The more we empower others through our stories, the more we come together in truth and rise up as a collective that becomes undefeatable.” - Joanna Hunt ● “In the midst of this very potential mass censorship, this is where the timeless activity of influencing others through writing a book comes in.” Timestamps: [01:39] What's really going on with the RESTRICT Act and the Tiktok ban [03:31] Why the bipartisanship seems to be in opposition to this [05:42] What we can do about this [07:30] Books as timeless resources and actionable steps to writing a book [11:38] How Joanna is helping Patriots publish their books Resources: ● Get your book published this year!

Jason Brett is a former FDIC regulator who worked through the 2008 Global Financial Crisis. In this interview, we discuss the Restrict Act, a proposed piece of US legislation that could enable the Secretary of Commerce to shutter access to Bitcoin. We also talk about Operation Chokepoint 2.0, the banking crisis, and whether Bitcoin is a threat to the banks. - - - - Last month, a bipartisan group of United States senators introduced a bill called “Restricting the Emergence of Security Threats that Risk Information and Communications Technology Act”, which is being referred to as the RESTRICT Act. Principally aimed at mitigating foreign technology threats, the legislation would empower officials to police and restrict Americans' domestic access to a range of technologies, including Bitcoin. Whilst not principally aimed at cryptocurrencies (it has been drafted with the aim of banning companies like TikTok from the United States), the bill has been widely criticised for its broad language. It would enable the secretary of commerce to take action against any information and communication technology connected to a foreign adversary that posed “undue or unacceptable risk”. The US has recent experience of the original intent of laws being stretched to limit American citizens' rights: the 2001 Patriot Act has been used for increasingly pervasive monitoring and surveillance of Americans that included the implementation of bulk data collection programs by the NSA affecting millions of people. The issue at hand is that Bitcoin presents a real and present danger to the Fed: it is both a viable alternative to commercial banks, and Treasury debt as a global reserve asset. History shows decision makers will use any tool available to restrict what they view as an undue and unacceptable risk. Whilst Bitcoin is not the primary target of the Restrict Act, it is feasible that one day it may be used to stop access to Bitcoin for Americans. Prepare accordingly.
“What's keeping me up is I don't really know if the ‘banking crisis' is over, we've done another temporary measure. But it was a process of many months, and then a couple of years where maybe we'll face the repercussions, like you said, of we overcorrected in 2008, but we didn't necessarily solve the problem at the time. And if it happens at a later date, maybe this is that later date to pay that check.”— Jason BrettJason Brett is a former FDIC regulator who worked through the 2008 Global Financial Crisis.

An alarming bill, the “Restricting the Emergence of Security Threats that Risk Information and Communications Technology Act,” better known by its acronym, the RESTRICT Act, is using the same national security talking points to justify further federal government encroachment on Americans' rights. It gives the US government sweeping powers to ban a wide range of apps and digital services.

Even if you're not a fan of social media, you've probably heard of TikTok. In recent months, countries around the planet have enacted bans on this app, due to security concers. As we record, the US is also considered a nationwide ban on TikTok -- but, according to critics, there may be another conspiracy at play.

This week we're bringing you the TikTok debate we wish we had from Congress. Featuring perspectives from V Spehar, host of TikTok's Under the Desk News; Senator Mark Warner, lead sponsor of the RESTRICT Act; and Graham Webster, Chinese technology expert. Over three interviews, Jon and Max offer a smarter debate for and against banning TikTok. For a closed-captioned version of this episode, click here. For a transcript of this episode, please email transcripts@crooked.com and include the name of the podcast.
TikTok might be banned from the United States. In this episode, hear testimony from TikTok's CEO and judge for yourself if you think the arrangement that TikTok has negotiated with the U.S. government is enough to ensure that the Chinese government will not have the ability to manipulate the app or acquire your data. We also take a detailed look at the bill that would ban TikTok (by granting vast new authorities to the government) and we examine the big picture arena in which TikTok and the RESTRICT Act are merely sideshows.

Bills S.686: RESTRICT Act Audio Sources US needs to ‘wake up' about the threat from China: Marco Rubio. March 30, 2023 Fox News Clips Sen. Marco Rubio (R-FL): Brazil - in our hemisphere, largest country in the western hemisphere south of us - cut a trade deal with China. They're going to, from now on, trade in their own currencies, get right around the dollar. They're creating a secondary economy in the world totally independent of the United States. We won't have to talk about sanctions in 5 years because there will be so many countries transacting in currencies other than the dollar that we won't have the ability to sanction them. Senator Marco Rubio: Private Companies Do Not Exist in China March 29, 2023 Twitter Mark Warner on the RESTRICT Act March 23, 2023 Fox News Clips Mark Warner: One of the things I always make clear is my beef is with the Communist Party of China. My beef is with Xi Jinping, the Communist Party leader, who treats his own people awfully... and I do think you need to make that distinction. Not about Chinese people. But to deny the authoritarian regime and their record is not based on a factual analysis. TikTok: How Congress Can Safeguard American Data Privacy and Protect Children from Online Harms March 23, 2023 House Committee on Energy and Commerce Watch on YouTube Witness: Shou Chew, CEO, TikTok Clips 7:15 Rep. Cathy McMorris Rodgers (R-WA): TikTok collects nearly every data point imaginable, from people's location, to what they type and copy, who they talk to, biometric data, and more. Even if they've never been on Tik Tok, your trackers are embedded in sites across the web. Tik Tok surveys us all, and the Chinese Communist Party is able to use this as a tool to manipulate America as a whole. We do not trust Tik Tok will ever embrace American values; values for freedom, human rights, and innovation. Tik Tok has repeatedly chosen the path for more control, more surveillance, and more manipulation. Your platform should be banned. 15:25 Rep. Frank Pallone (D-NJ): National security experts are sounding the alarm, warning that the Chinese Communist government could require TikTok to compromise device security, maliciously access American user data, promote pro-Communist propaganda, and undermine American interests. Disinformation campaigns could be launched by the by the Chinese Communist government through TikTok, which has already become rife with misinformation and disinformation, illegal activities, and hate speech. A recent report found that 20% of TikTok search results on prominent news topics contain misinformation. 20:35 Shou Chew: Let me start by addressing a few misconceptions about ByteDance, of which we are a subsidiary. ByteDance is not owned or controlled by the Chinese government. It is a private company. 60% of the company is owned by global institutional investors, 20% is owned by the founder, and 20% owned by employees around the world. ByteDance has five board members, three of them are American. Now TikTok itself is not available in mainland China. We're headquartered in Los Angeles and in Singapore, and we have 7000 employees in the US today. 21:50 Shou Chew: The bottom line is this: American data stored on American soil by an American company overseen by American personnel. We call this initiative Project Texas. That's where Oracle is headquartered. Today, U.S. TikTok data is stored by default in Oracle's service. Only vetted personnel operating in a new company called TikTok U.S. Data Security can control access to this data. Now, additionally, we have plans for this company to report to an independent American board with strong security credentials. Now, there's still some work to do. We have legacy U.S. data sitting in our servers in Virginia and in Singapore. We're deleting those and we expect that to be completed this year. When that is done, all protected U.S. data will be under the protection of US law and under the control of the U.S.-led security team. This eliminates the concern that some of you have shared with me that TikTok user data can be subject to Chinese law. 22:55 Shou Chew: We also provide unprecedented transparency and security for the source code for the TikTok app and recommendation engine. Third party validators like Oracle and others will review and validate our source code and algorithms. This will help ensure the integrity of the code that powers what Americans see on our app. We will further provide access to researchers, which helps them study and monitor our content ecosystem. Now we believe we are the only company that offers this level of transparency. 23:35 Shou Chew: The potential security, privacy, [and] content manipulation concerns raised about TikTok are really not unique to us. The same issues apply to other companies. We believe what's needed are clear, transparent rules that apply broadly to all tech companies. Ownership is not at the core of addressing these concerns. 24:20 Shou Chew: TikTok will remain a place for free expression and will not be manipulated by any government. 27:30 Rep. Cathy McMorris Rodgers (R-WA): Have any moderation tools been used to remove content on TikTok associated with the Uyghur genocide? Yes or no? Shou Chew: We do not remove that kind of content. Tik Tok is a place for freedom of expression. Chairwoman, just like I said, if you use our app, you can go on it and you will see a lot of users around the world expressing content on that topic and many others. Rep. Cathy McMorris Rodgers (R-WA): Thank you. What about the massacre in Tiananmen Square? Yes or no? Shou Chew: I'm sorry, I didn't hear the question. Rep. Cathy McMorris Rodgers (R-WA): The massacre in Tiananmen Square. Shou Chew: That kind of content is available on our platform. You can go and search it. 28:05 Rep. Cathy McMorris Rodgers (R-WA): I will remind you that making false or misleading statements to Congress is a federal crime. 28:15 Rep. Cathy McMorris Rodgers (R-WA): Can you say with 100% certainty that ByteDance or the CCP cannot use your company or its divisions to heat content to promote pro-CCP messages for an act of aggression against Taiwan. Shou Chew: We do not promote or remove content at the request of the Chinese government. Rep. Cathy McMorris Rodgers (R-WA): The question is, are you 100% certain that they cannot use your company to promote such messages? Shou Chew: It is our commitment to this committee and all users that we will keep this free from any manipulation by any government. 39:10 Shou Chew: Congressman, since I've been CEO of this company I've not had any discussions with Chinese government officials. 43:55 Rep. Anna Eshoo (D-CA): The Chinese government has that data. How can you promise that that will move into the United States of America and be protected here? Shou Chew: Congresswoman, I have seen no evidence that the Chinese government has access to that data. They have never asked us; we have not provided it. I've asked that -- Rep. Anna Eshoo (D-CA): Well, you know what, I find that actually preposterous. Shou Chew: I have looked and I have seen no evidence of this happening. And in order to assure everybody here and all our users, our commitment is to move the data into the United States to be stored on American soil, by an American company, overseen by American personnel. So the risk will be similar to any government going to an American company asking for data. 44:40 Rep. Anna Eshoo (D-CA): Well I'm one that doesn't believe that there is really a private sector in China. 54:55 Rep. Diana DeGette (D-CO): So I want to know from you, and I will give you time to answer this. You have current controls, but the current controls are not working to keep dosinformation mainly from young people, but from Americans in general. What more is is TikTok doing to try to strengthen its review to keep disinformation from coming across to people. Shou Chew: Thank you for the question, Congresswoman. The dangerous misinformation that you mentioned is not allowed on our platform. It violates the -- Rep. Diana DeGette (D-CO): I'm sorry to report it is on your platform, though. Shou Chew: Congresswoman, I don't think I can sit here and say that we are perfect in doing this. We do work very hard. Rep. Diana DeGette (D-CO): How can you make yourself more perfect? I don't want you to say it's not there or you apologize. What can you do to limit it as much as possible, more than what you're doing now? Shou Chew: We invest a significant amount in our content moderation work. I shared that number in my written testimony -- Rep. Diana DeGette (D-CO): I know you're investing, but what steps are you taking to improve the AI, or whatever else you're doing, to limit this content? Shou Chew: For example, if you search for certain search terms, we do direct you on TikTok to safety resources. That's one of the things we have done. We will continue to invest in this I recognize and fully aligned with you that this is a problem that faces our industry that we need to really invest and address this. I'm very in alignment. 1:07:05 Rep. Jan Schakowsky (D-IL): Does TikTok share user information from companies...from parent companies...from affiliated...or send user information to...overseas? Shou Chew: In the past, yes, for interoperability purposes. Now, after Project Texas, all protected U.S. data will be stored here with the access controlled by a special team of U.S. personnel. 1:07:55 Rep. Jan Schakowsky (D-IL): I do want a quote from employees that you had, and here's the quote, "everything is seen in China" is really what they said. People who were in touch with the sensitive data were saying that. How do you respond to that? Shou Chew: I disagree with that statement. Rep. Jan Schakowsky (D-IL): Well, I know you disagree with that statement. But my point is, how does that happen that employees of the company are saying that in fact, that's not true. Shou Chew: I cannot speak to, I don't know who this person is, so I cannot speak to what the person has or has not said. What I can say is, you know, based on my position in this company, and the responsibility that I have, that statement is just not true. 1:11:00 Rep. Kat Cammack (R-FL): Yes or no, ByteDance is required to have a member of the Chinese government on its board with veto power, is that correct? Shou Chew: No, that is not correct. ByteDance owns some Chinese businesses and you're talking about this very special subsidiary that is for Chinese business license -- Rep. Kat Cammack (R-FL): Mr. Chew, I'm gonna have to move on. 1:19:20 Shou Chew: First, anything that is violated and harmful, we remove. What I meant to say were [sic] content that is not inherently inherently harmful, like some of the extreme fitness videos about people running 100 miles, is not inherently harmful, but if we show them too much, the experts are telling us that we should disperse them more and make sure that they're not seen too regularly, especially by younger users. 1:33:20 Rep. Bill Johnson (R-OH): Do you realize that making false and misleading statements to Congress is a federal crime? Shou Chew: Yes, I do. Rep. Bill Johnson (R-OH): Okay. 1:39:35 Shou Chew: We do want to be leading in terms of safety of our users, particularly for teenagers. We were the first to launch a 60 minute watch limit. Rep. John Sarbanes (D-MD): And let's talk about the 60 Minute -- Shou Chew: And I'm very glad to see others in our industry follow. For many of the recommendations, we will study them very seriously. We actually have a series of features. Like for example, if you're under 16, you cannot use a direct messaging feature, because we know we want to protect those younger users. If you're under 16, you cannot go viral by default. If you're under 18, you cannot go live. 1:48:20 Rep. Paul Tonko (D-NY): Will you continue to get information from these third parties on its users health? Shou Chew: Get information? We do not get any user health information from third parties. 1:56:20 Shou Chew: The American data has always been stored in Virginia and Singapore in the past. And access of this is on an as required basis by engineers globally — Rep. Tim Walberg (R-SC): As required by who? Shou Chew: By engineers, for business purposes -- Rep. Tim Walberg (R-SC): Engineers? ByteDance? The Communist Party? Shou Chew: No, no. Rep. Tim Walberg (R-SC): Why? How can you say that if they have access -- Shou Chew: This is a business. This is a private business, and like many other businesses, many other American companies, we rely on the global workforce. Rep. Tim Walberg (R-SC): So the global workforce, that includes ByteDance, which is connected directly to the Chinese Communist Party. Shou Chew: That is a mischaracterization that we disagree with. Now, in the future -- Rep. Tim Walberg (R-SC): That's not what we can disagree with. That's a fact. Shou Chew: It's not, unfortunately. Rep. Tim Walberg (R-SC): The CEO of ByteDance and your relationship to them. Shou Chew: Congressman, respectfully, in my opening statement, I said this is a private company, it's owned 60% by global investors. Three out of the five board members on ByteDance are Americans. This is a private business Rep. Tim Walberg (R-SC): You report directly to ByteDance, with a CEO who is a member of Communist Party. Let me move on — Shou Chew: He is not. Rep. Tim Walberg (R-SC): -- I think we got the answer. 2:07:20 Shou Chew: We do not collect body, face, or voice data to identify our users. We do not -- Rep. Buddy Carter (R-GA): You don't? Shou Chew: No, the only face data that you get that we collect is when you use the filters to have sunglasses on your face. We need to know where your eyes are -- Rep. Buddy Carter (R-GA): Why do you need to know what the eyes are if you're not seeing if they're dilated? Shou Chew: -- and that data is stored on your local device and deleted after use if you use it for facial. Again, we do not collect body, face, or voice data to identify users. Rep. Buddy Carter (R-GA): I find that hard to believe. 2:30:20 Rep. Gary Palmer (R-AL): When the Chinese Communist government bought a share ByteDance, it's been described as the Chinese Communist Government's way of quieter form of control, and that companies have little choice in selling a stake to the government if they want to stay in business, and what I'd like to know is when the Chinese Communist government moved to buy shares of ByteDance, were you informed beforehand, yes or no? Shou Chew: No, Congressman, ByteDance -- Rep. Gary Palmer (R-AL): Were you or anyone with TikTok asked for your opinion about the sale of shares of ByteDance to the Chinese Communist government? Yes or no? Shou Chew: It just, this hasn't happened. 2:34:55 Rep. Debbie Dingell (D-MI): Mr. Chew, have any prior versions of TikTok's app collected precise GPS information from us users, yes or no? Shou Chew: Yes. From back in 2020, about three years ago. Rep. Debbie Dingell (D-MI): Are there currently TikTok users who still hold old versions of the app that collect precise GPS information from U.S. users? Yes or no? Shou Chew: That could be, but that's a small percentage. 2:36:05 Rep. Debbie Dingell (D-MI): Has TikTok, at any time, sold precise GPS information collected from U.S. users? Yes or no? Shou Chew: We do not sell data to data brokers if that's the question. Rep. Debbie Dingell (D-MI): And you've never done that? Shou Chew: I do not believe so. 2:37:15 Rep. Debbie Dingell (D-MI): Has TikTok, at any time, provided the Chinese government with either precise GPS information collected from U.S. users or inferences made from that data? Shou Chew: That I can give you a straight answer: no. 2:37:30 Rep. Debbie Dingell (D-MI): Mr. Chew, even in Congress, even if Congress were to ban Tiktok, I'm concerned that China or others would still have access to US consumer data by purchasing it through data brokers. Will you commit not to sell any of TikTok's data to data brokers now or in the future? Shou Chew: We do not do that. We do not sell data to data brokers now. Rep. Debbie Dingell (D-MI): Will you commit to not do it in the future? Shou Chew: This is -- certain members of industry who do this. I think this has to be broad legislation to help us, the whole industry, address this problem. 3:13:15 Rep. Debbie Lesko (R-AZ): A March 21, Forbes article revealed how troves of personal data of Indian citizens who once used TikTok remained widely accessible to employees at the company and its Beijing based parent ByteDance. A current TikTok employee told Forbes that nearly anyone with basic access to company tools, including employees in China, can easily look up the closest contacts and other sensitive information about any user. This current TikTok employee also said, "If you want to start a movement, if you want to divide people, if you want to do any of the operation to influence the public on the app, you can just use that information to target those groups." Mr. Chew, why would a current TikTok employee say this if it wasn't true? Shou Chew: This is a recent article, I have asked my team to look into it. As far as I know there is, we have rigorous data access protocols. There's really no such thing where anybody can get access to tools. Rep. Debbie Lesko (R-AZ): Alright. Shou Chew: So I disagree with a lot of the conclusions of that. 3:18:20 Rep. Darren Soto (D-FL): So Mr. Chew, would TikTok be prepared to divest from ByteDance and Chinese Communist Party ties if the Department of Treasury instructed you all to do so? Shou Chew: Congressman, I said in my opening statement, I think we need to address the problem of privacy. I agree with you. I don't think ownership is the issue here, with a lot of respect. American social companies don't have a good track record with data privacy and user security. I mean, look at Facebook and Cambridge Analytica, just one example. So I do think that you know, it is not about the ownership, it is a lot about making sure we have Project Texas, making sure that we're protecting and firewalling U.S. user data from unwanted foreign access, giving third parties to come in to have a look at this and making sure that everybody is comfortable. We're giving transparency and third party monitoring and that's what we're doing for Project Texas. 4:24:15 Shou Chew: Congressman, we have only one process of removing content on our platform and the process is done by our content moderation team headquartered in Ireland and the US, and we will only remove content that violates our guidelines, and that's something that we audit, or if there's a valid legal order. 4:26:05 Rep. Randy Weber (R-TX): Here are my concerns with TikTok. Your claims are hard to believe. It's no secret to us that TikTok is still under the thumb of CCP influence and, let's be honest, TikTok is indoctrinating our children with divisive, woke, and pro-CCP propaganda. 4:27:15 Rep. Randy Weber (R-TX): Should we plan to have a committee hearing every time, every day, every time there's something brought up so that we can limit the content on TikTok? Should Congress plan to do that Mr. Chew? Rep. Raul Ruiz (D-CA): Almost 30% of the videos that came up contained misinformation...a high level of misinformation...misinformation...disinformation...misleading information...harmful misinformation...misinformation...misinformation. Why are these dangerous videos falling through the cracks of your company's efforts to enforce its own community guidelines and remove harmful misinformation? 4:30:20 Shou Chew: Yes, any dangerous misinformation is...we partner with third party experts to be able to identify and help us with subject domain expertise. And with their expertise that we recognize, we rely on those to develop policies to recognize and remove could be -- Rep. Raul Ruiz (D-CA): Well, your efforts I have failed, and they're dangerous. 4:33:10 Shou Chew: I can get back to you on the specifics, but dangerous misinformation is moderated regardless of language. Rep. Raul Ruiz (D-CA): Not to the degree that it needs to be. 4:58:40 Rep. August Pfluger (R-TX): Are keystroke patterns and rhythms part of TikTok gathering the data that is gathered by TikTok? Shou Chew: If you're talking, Congressman, specifically about keystrokes, you know, we do not. We do not engage in keystroke logging to monitor what the users say. It's to identify bots for security purposes, and this is a standard industry practice. 5:24:30 Rep. Dan Crenshaw (R-TX): Here's the main point of concern: China's 2017 National Intelligence law states very clearly, that, "any organization or citizen shall support, assist and cooperate with state intelligence work in accordance with the law and maintain the secrecy of all knowledge of state intelligence work." In other words, ByteDance, and also your TikTok employees that live in China, they must cooperate with Chinese intelligence whenever they are called upon. And if they are called upon, they're bound to secrecy. That would include you. So Mr. Chew, if the CCP tells ByteDance to turn over all data that TikTok has collected inside the US, even within Project Texas, do they have to do so according to Chinese law? Shou Chew: Congressman, first, I'm Singaporean. Rep. Dan Crenshaw (R-TX): That's fine. But there are employees of yours and ByteDance's in China. Shou Chew: We understand this concern. In my opening statement, we said we hear these concerns, we didn't try to avoid them or you know, trivialize them, we built something where we take the data and put it out of reach. This is what we did, we put it out of reach. Rep. Dan Crenshaw (R-TX): But they own you. Shou Chew: No, we put it out of reach by -- Rep. Dan Crenshaw (R-TX): ByteDance owns Tiktok and the CCP owns ByteDance, because the CCP owns everybody in China. So by law, they can make them do whatever they want. And they say that by law, you can't tell anyone about it. So they can make you hand over that data is that correct? Shou Chew: Data is stored here in American soil, by an American company overseen by American -- Rep. Dan Crenshaw (R-TX): Leaked audio from 80 internal TikTok meeting shows that US user data has been repeatedly accessed from China, when you said it hasn't been. And here's the other thing, following back on my colleagues line of questioning. In your own privacy policy, it says that you may share information within your so called "Corporate Group" is ByteDance part of that corporate group? Shou Chew: If you're talking about the share of the entity with the share, like I shared with the previous -- Rep. Dan Crenshaw (R-TX): Is ByteDance part of the corporate group? Shou Chew: ByteDance, as a holding company, is part of the corporate group, yes. Rep. Dan Crenshaw (R-TX): Part of the corporate group. Okay, so your own privacy policy says you have to share data with ByteDance. And if the CCP says, Hey ByteDance, you're going to do what we say and you can't tell anyone about it because by law, according to that 2017 National Intelligence law, they have to do it. That's our concern. 5:26:50 Rep. Dan Crenshaw (R-TX): Okay, so my last point is this, I want to say this to all the teenagers out there, and the TikTok influencers who think we're just old and out of touch and don't know what we're talking about, trying to take away your favorite app. You may not care that your data is being accessed now, but it will be one day when you do care about it. And here's the real problem: with data comes power. They can choose what you see and how you see it. They can make you believe things that are not true. They can encourage you to engage in behavior that will destroy your life. Even if it is not happening yet, it could in the future. The long term goal of the Chinese Communist Party is the demise of the American power, and that starts with our youth. At any moment, they could demand that all of TikTok's data be used to design an AI algorithm with the sole purpose of promoting Chinese interests and destroying our society from within. You want to know why Democrats and Republicans have come together on this? That's why we are so concerned. 2:07:55 Rep. Buddy Carter (R-GA): How do you determine what age they are then? Shou Chew: We rely on age-gating as our key age assur-- Rep. Buddy Carter (R-GA): Age...? Shou Chew: -gating, which is when you ask the user what age they are. We have also developed some tools where we look at their public profile to go through the videos that they post to see whether-- Rep. Buddy Carter (R-GA): Well that's creepy. Tell me more about that. Shou Chew: It's public. So if you post a video [and] you choose that video to go public, that's how you get people to see your video. We look at those to see if it matches up the age that you told. Combatting the Economic Threat from China February 7, 2023 House Committee on Financial Services Watch on YouTube Witnesses: Peter E. Harrell, Former Senior Director for International Economics and Competitiveness, National Security Council and National Economic Council Clips Rep. David Scott (D-GA): I am deeply concerned with the fast growing possibility of a China-led world order. That includes the Chinese military controlling the South Pacific trade route because the South Pacific trade war is now the lifeline of the entire global economy. Peter E. Harrell: I think it's important that we all, as we think about China policy, we all recognize that China, though a serious competitor, and by far our most significant economic competitor, is not 10 feet tall. It's not some sort of mythical beast that we cannot out-compete. I think you've highlighted a couple of the reasons, Congresswoman, why that's the case. They do have high levels of debt. They also have serious long term demographic problems, coming to having a shrinking working age population. Rep. William Timmins (R-SC): The question is what are we going to do to get China to reform their behavior and compete in the global economy and be good actors in the global economy. That's the question. Economic Danger Zone: How America Competes to Win the Future Versus China February 1, 2023 Committee on Energy and Commerce, Subcommittee on Innovation, Data, and Commerce Watch on YouTube Witnesses: Samm Sacks, Senior Fellow, New America & Senior Fellow, Yale Law School Paul Tsai China Center Clips Samm Sacks: I mean, to be honest, I think that the grading profiles based on aggregate data is primarily a counterintelligence concern for individuals with national security clearances and the military or access to sensitive information for your average American what that what the impact would probably be more in terms of would that population or individual preference information could that be used to push information that would make say, a spear phishing attack more appealing it might be more likely that someone would would be a would click on a link because it appealed to them based on information that was collected? And so I would say it's, I would look at it from that angle. But why highlighted in my testimony, the more sort of far reaching impact is on economic competitiveness, which is a distinct issue, right? It's on Chinese firms who are able to access diverse international data sets beyond China. What that allows them to do is train AI models that could be more competitive in markets outside of China, where they're competing head to head with US firms. So I would bucket the risk. You have national security issues. You also have missed it targeted misinformation that could be used from that, as well as economic competitiveness between us and Chinese firms. And it's important to sort of be clear about those distinct buckets of risk. Samm Sacks: I guess I'll start with the TikTok issue. But you know, I think that there are two important issues on the table. One is data security, who has access to what, and the other is the potential to push misinformation online, the recommendation algorithm. My understanding is that there is a national security agreement on the table. You know, from a data security standpoint, if Oracle has the data in the cloud, there are multiple third party auditors and an oversight board that reports to CFIUS, I think that that would be pretty much locked down. The question around what kind of information the recommendation system pushes forward is an important one. And that also under this agreement -- it's called Project Texas and I've published about it just a week or so ago -- would be again, subject to verification, source code reviewed, essentially vetted by CFIUS. I think it's important that the public understand what that national security agreement would look like and then have a debate. Is this enough to address those concerns? And to what extent would other social media companies also need to meet them? Music Presented in This Episode Intro & Exit: Tired of Being Lied To by David Ippolito (found on Music Alley by mevio)
The “Restrict Act” currently being pushed through Congress with bipartisan support, ostensibly an effort to keep the Chinese government from spying on Americans, will allow the U.S. government to dramatically restrict the websites Americans can visit. In fact, by using a VPN to circumvent restrictions Americans could possibly put themselves at risk of being sentenced to 20 years in prison. Jimmy and Americans' Comedian Kurt Metzger discuss this draconian effort to monitor Americans' online lives. Plus a segment with Professor Richard Wolff about the collapse of Silicon Valley Bank and what it portends for the U.S. economy's future. Also featuring Stef Zamorano and Mike MacRae! And phone calls from Joe Biden and Vince Vaughn!
Tone prompts a terrifying warning about the RESTRICT Act, which is being soid to the American public under false pretenses. Mohawk Mick talks about the ridiculous decision to classify Juggalos as a gang. Medic Grandma shares insider info about life as an EMT. Old Sharkjumper replies to an earlier conversation about medically-assisted suicide in Canada. All this and more in this week's listener mail segment.They don't want you to read our book.: https://static.macmillan.com/static/fib/stuff-you-should-read/See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

OUTLINE of today's show with TIMECODES"Don't throw me in that Brier Patch!" A look at the financial and political windfall the indictment has been for Trump 2:05 NYC is perhaps damaged by Trump's financially-incentivized lockdowns more than any other city, but the crowd doesn't know or care — they hate Trump for nonsense reasons. Commercial real estate is down 50% or more, including Trump's. And it appears he greatly overstated square footage of Trump Tower as well 6:09 The way of the uni-party is to ignore the big crimes and go after petty stuff — swallow the camel, strain on the gnat 23:43 YouTube shuts Right Side Broadcasting down as they were about to broadcast the Trump hearing live. What's even more important is the NEW "justification" YT gave for their censorship 30:47 Even left-wing Politico doesn't see substance in the Trump indictment and they do a better job of picking apart the weak case than the Trump media does. 33:55 It's Easter and the Messiah Complex is everywhere — from "trans pastor" to politicians comparing Trump to the suffering Savior. 55:38 Sorry MTG, Nelson Mandela was not a hero, not a martyr. Greene holds up the Marxist icon while condemning the Marxist-style persecution 1:10:06 Los Angeles wants to empty the prisons of violent criminals. They call it "Decarceration" 1:20:15 Google getting serious about making some cuts — even staplers. Better watch out for Milton 1:24:09 New York Times: “The fiercest vaccine advocates are starting to admit the truth about the MRNA.” 1:31:13 Dr. Paul Offit, vaccine pusher and cheerleader now tells us (years later) that there's not enough data. Two years ago he said the vaccines were "perfect" 1:38:53 What countries can I go to if I haven't been vaccinated? Only authoritarian Marxist states (like the USA) still require the TrumpShots 1:53:11 There's a viral video resurfaced on social media about a cure for cancer. 2:09:46 One researcher is so afraid of AI that he wants to use the military to destroy all research sites. What is he missing? 2:18:41 US military caught figuring out how to use deep-fakes for disinformation campaigns. 2:33:03 EU Commissioner is questioned on the so-called "Chat Control Bill". She's as clueless about it (and technology) as Lindsey Graham is about the RESTRICT Act he supports 2:41:03 Nouriel Roubini and Paul Craig Roberts say most banks in the US are “technically near insolvency, hundreds are bankrupt”. And the Fed's actions will only exacerbate 2:47:35 Marco Rubio is concerned that the reserve status of the dollar is disappearing. But as a true neocon, he's only concerned about how it will affect government's ability to sanction, not the hardships on Americans 2:53:1Find out more about the show and where you can watch it at TheDavidKnightShow.com If you would like to support the show and our family please consider subscribing monthly here:SubscribeStar https://www.subscribestar.com/the-david-knight-showOr you can send a donation through Mail: David Knight POB 994 Kodak, TN 37764Zelle: @DavidKnightShow@protonmail.comCash App at: $davidknightshowBTC to: bc1qkuec29hkuye4xse9unh7nptvu3y9qmv24vanh7Money is only what YOU hold: Go to DavidKnight.gold for great deals on physical gold/silver

Senator Ron Johnson seems to be the only Republican with a full grasp on the scope of evil running the entire Covid program. He tried and failed to get the Senate to recognize the illegality of FigureHead Biden handing the corrupt, lying, murderous World Health Organization control over America when the WHO decides to declare a public health emergency. While the WHO has taken a break from pushing the mRNA on babies, the harm from the mRNA already in babies via their mother's breastmilk is still becoming known, as we have now learned it has caused neurological damage as shown the Pfizer's own post-marketing data, according to Dr. Peter McCullough. It's not “just” neurological harm to babies, the mRNA is the only reasonable suspect for the 19.9% excess cancer deaths in young Americans or the 40% Excess Mortality in 2021 for Ages 25 – 64 Amongst the Healthiest Among Us and the current Excess Death Rate of 23% Among All Age Groups in America. There is far more in this Episode, including another appearance by a non-voting member of Congress acting like an angry child during the weaponization of government hearing and a plan Rand Paul and Chip Roy have to rid the government of Faucisim. What does God say? I am not saying the W.H.O. is the one world government about which the Bible warns, but given what we know about the W.H.O. in its current form, giving the any say of American--let alone control, which the Biden people intend to do--is a step in that direction. The following is one view on the end times, I recognize Christians have different ideas about measures like the Rapture. Does the Bible prophesy a one-world government and a one-world currency in the end times?Senator Ron Johnson: “Today, Democrats defeated my amendment to require Senate ratification for any pandemic agreement with the World Health Organization. Now we know Democrats are willing to relinquish U.S. sovereignty to a global entity. How sad.”Dr. Peter McCullough: mRNA transferred in breast milk resulting in neurological injury to the infant. Came from Pfizer post-marketing data. No journalist, Senator, Congressman, or FDA official has asked Pfizer about post-marketing data.Ethical Skeptic: “Even more disconcerting, this Cancer Mortality Excess is hitting younger age groups harder as a percentage excess, at 19.9%. This also bears the same arrival function as the other cancer increase indices - inflecting (excluding dry tinder) in early 2021.”Ethical Skeptic's Sixteenth Axiom of Nelsonian Knowledge: “In order to skilfully distort the truth, one must first know it.” Ban @tiktok_us. The CCP is using this app to gather intelligence on Americans and wage a psyop on this countryAt Biden's “Summit for Democracy,” US allies in Europe demanded that Facebook censor “false narratives” and news that would “weaken our support to Ukraine.”Facebook agreed. This is totalitarianism.Everyone needs to hear about the RESTRICT Act (S. 686). This bill is also currently known as the "Tik Tok ban" by many. But, it looks as though we were all deceived again. The Tik Tok ban is nothing but a distraction while they try to push the RESTRICT Act into law.Senator Mark Warner, who is a fan of government-censorship via tech, wants us to believe the government: “Folks, I've heard rampant misinformation about the RESTRICT Act expanding surveillance – that is not what the RESTRICT Act does at all. It's focused on countering surveillance by foreign governments – it doesn't censor what you can say or surveil your phone or search history.”I break the news to Lindsey Graham that he co-sponsored a bill he doesn't supportWatch @SenWarren's remarkable emotional pivot as she goes from defending TikTok in one moment to blaming Republicans for the mass murder in Nashville in the next4Patriotshttps://4patriots.comNever be in the dark with the Patriot Power Solar Generator.

In this episode, I address the stunning indictment of Donald Trump by tyrant DA Alvin Bragg, and the likely outcome and repercussions. News Picks: The witch hunt against Trump hits a new low. There was an insurrection in Tennessee yesterday, and the media did their best to cover it up. Here's yet another reason to have armed guards at your child's school. CBS hits a new low with their coverage of the alleged transgender killer. Radical Trans activists are calling for violence, and the media is doing nothing about it. Liberals are depressed and this new study explains why. The RESTRICT Act is an abomination. Copyright Bongino Inc All Rights Reserved Learn more about your ad choices.

Both parties in Congress are now eager to ban TikTok — which should have been the first sign something bad was about to happen. Charlie exposes the shocking truth of the Restrict Act, the “TikTok ban” that is actually just a sweeping assault on Americans' freedoms, put together by a power-hungry D.C. uniparty.Support the show: http://www.charliekirk.com/supportSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Israel has been paralyzed its worst protests in decades. Revolver's Darren Beattie argues that this isn't a run-of-the-mill political disputes, but rather globalist "color revolution" tactics deployed against Benjamin Netanyahu's government. Both Beattie and attorney Robert Barnes react to the dangerous new RESTRICT Act, and then Charlie responds to disturbing plans at the Census Bureau that will take America one step closer to creating a racial caste system based on reparations.Support the show: http://www.charliekirk.com/supportSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
In light of Kentucky's new law, Glenn lays out how banning child sex-change procedures is not an attack on the transgender community. But is all this just a distraction to hide what the Fed is doing to the economy? America's petro-dollar is on the verge of being abandoned. The U.K.'s agriculture is set to be reworked entirely to combat climate change. Instead of just outwardly banning TikTok, the Biden admin hopes to pass the “Restrict Act,” which would give the government sweeping power over anything deemed a security threat. With AI advancing rapidly, it's time to discuss how much of it we want in our society. Family physician Dr. John Littell joins Glenn to share how his board certification was revoked due to COVID “misinformation.” Dr. Eric Hensen, an ear, nose, and throat doctor, just had his license suspended for a 2020 mask mandate violation.

The Rich Zeoli Show- Full Episode (03/29/2023): 3:05pm- On Monday, a 28-year-old assailant killed six people, including three children at Covenant School in Nashville, Tennessee—a private Christian elementary school. The alleged shooter was a former student of the school and identified as a transgender man. While speaking with members of the press, Nashville Police Chief John Drake said that investigators have not yet confirmed a motive for the attack. In her latest article, Katherine Fung of Newsweek documents objections to the public release of the shooter's manifesto—citing “concerns from LGBTQ+ groups.” In the past, these types of manifestos have always been made available to reporters and the public. Is it ever a good idea to allow government officials to withhold pertinent information?

After reviewing Hamilton 68's secret list, Twitter's safety officer, Yoel Roth, privately admitted that his company was allowing ‘real people' to be ‘unilaterally labeled Russian stooges without evidence or recourse.'” You can read his full investigative report here: https://www.tabletmag.com/sections/news/articles/guide-understanding-hoax-century-thirteen-ways-looking-disinformation 5:00pm- The Drive at 5: Dr. Wilfred Reilly—Professor of Political Science at Kentucky State University & Author of “Taboo: 10 Facts You Can't Talk About”—joins The Rich Zeoli Show to discuss his latest National Review editorial, “Robin DiAngelo and Scott Adams: Double Standard on Race.” PLUS is basic math racist?

Glenn exposes the controlling manipulation at the root of the Left's takeover of pronouns. There is bipartisan support to ban the Chinese spying app TikTok, but the proposed “Restrict Act” would give the federal government complete control over anything deemed a security threat, essentially making it an enhanced Patriot Act. Former Arizona gubernatorial candidate Kari Lake joins to discuss her recent Supreme Court win to challenge the signature verification process in Maricopa County, which may have affected the outcome of her campaign.

Today we're joined by Kara Frederick, director of the Tech Policy Center at the Heritage Foundation, to discuss Congress' recent TikTok hearings and the arguments for and against a nationwide TikTok ban. We discuss how much power China holds over TikTok as a company and what, ultimately, China could do with our data. We talk about how it's not just a concern when it comes to government data and why it's also dangerous for China to have YOUR specific data. We also look at a clip from the TikTok hearing in which TikTok CEO Shou Zi Chew cannot deny that the CCP is manipulating content on the app. But does China manipulate TikTok algorithms to push ideologies that weaken the U.S., while restricting those very same ideologies in its own country? We explain why it's naive to think the answer is no. We also talk about the RESTRICT Act, a bill proposed to ban TikTok, and the opposition from both sides of the political aisle. --- Timecodes: (03:24) Interview begins (05:20) China taking TikTok data (09:25) Why should we care about TikTok on our personal phones?

The press secretary for Arizona Democratic Gov. Katie Hobbs resigned Wednesday morning after appearing to suggest gun violence against "transphobes" just hours after a woman who identified as transgender gunned down six people at a Tennessee school. An activist group is due to hold a "Trans Day of Vengeance" demonstration outside the Supreme Court on Saturday, warning against "astronomical amounts of hate from the world." President Biden laughed at the idea that the Nashville shooter targeted Christians. White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre doubled down on blaming Republicans for the mass shooting. The RESTRICT Act grants the White House, through the Commerce Department, the ability to go after anyone and any company that it deems a security risk. Republican U.S. Sen. Ted Cruz and U.S. Department of Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas exchanged heated barbs during Tuesday's Senate Judiciary hearing over border issues, with each official referring to the other as “revolting.” Today's Sponsors: Go to http://PrepareWithNews.com to SAVE $200 on a 3-Month Emergency Food Supply kit from My Patriot Supply — America's largest preparedness company.

Like the PATRIOT Act after 9/11, the RESTRICT Act introduced in the Senate is using a "crisis" to decimate our core Constitutional liberties. The bill gives any presidential administration the power to simply end any social media company it deems a "national security threat."
