Such a smart article by @drewharwell@mastodon.social tracking how states copied one another on TikTok "bans," including identical garbled text in executive orders.
And when Pa. banned TikTok from state-issued devices, one agency found zero phones had TikTok. https://www.washingtonpost.com/technology/2023/01/20/tiktok-bans-states-colleges/

Once again I ask, what should Americans and U.S. policy officials do about TikTok or other popular apps from China?
There's no easy answer!
Symbolic bans or shaming individual companies that work with TikTok don't address the bigger question. https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/2023/01/18/businesses-schools-are-facing-pressure-drop-tiktok-too/

Apple just introduced two updated products WITHOUT holding a breathless 90 minute event about them.

@dheadshot@mastodon.social I get your point! But most people have phone notifications for email. It pings us. It distracts us when it arrives. And there is an expectation of rapid response.

Look, if companies are going to ask for kids' birthdays, they need to explain WHY they're asking in plain language.
They are inviting suspicion by being mysterious. https://www.washingtonpost.com/technology/2023/01/12/kid-birth-date-share-tech/

Outlook's "tone" check feature makes me irrationally angry.
And I won't turn it off because I love to see how annoyed I get by it.

When NFL games air on Amazon Prime, viewership has been consistently lower than comparable games on TV networks.
I'm not sure I get why. Prime has as many or more subscribers as U.S. cable TV. https://www.nexttv.com/news/streaming-off-a-cliff-thursday-night-football-audience-dropped-whopping-41-for-the-season-on-amazon

You know everything we're supposed to do with passwords.
Most people don't do it. It's not your fault. The system is broken.
Kill passwords. New "passkeys" tech can help. https://www.washingtonpost.com/technology/2023/01/10/lastpass-breach-kill-passwords/

What's the point of Apple's draconian power over the App Store if it lets in obvious bogus apps?

There's no perfect answer for what America should do about TikTok.
But the status quo of the app being wildly used but treated (mostly symbolically) as a pariah by policy officials...is this productive? https://www.semafor.com/article/01/09/2023/lawmakers-tell-espn-to-quit-letting-tiktok-sponsor-football-games
