Facebook's Zuckerberg criticizes TikTok for censoring protesters

WASHINGTON - Facebook Inc Chief Executive Mark Zuckerberg on Thursday attacked the rapidly growing Chinese short-video app, saying it censored political protest, including in the United States.

While delivering an address on free speech at Georgetown University in Washington, Zuckerberg said Facebook social media platforms like WhatsApp were used by protesters and activists everywhere because of its encryption and privacy protection. Zuckerberg, in a recently leaked recording of him speaking with company employees, noted that TikTok was the first successful Chinese internet product worldwide. “It’s starting to do well in the U.S., especially with young folks.”

In a letter requesting the review, Rubio noted that despite Hong Kong protests dominating international headlines for months, “the app only had a few videos” of the protests.

No worries. If the left gets in, they’ll eventually take control of all of these platforms and tell EVERYONE what they can and can’t say. Can’t wait!

Zuckerberg censorship for anti vaccines is going well because of big pharma money 💰 but lies about politics and political opponents is not censored because of money 💰. Money is always the culprit, in the end it's always about money. Everytime.

Facebook delete so many accounts that support H.K. polices, hypocrisical guy, shameless!

so facebook usually is not censoring ?

Zuck is such a freak... dude look at the guy

Zuckerberg is against censorship, unless it is by or for Facebook. He isn't exactly a proponent of free speech either, but he is all in on monetized speech.

Delete your facebook and make the world a better place

Would someone please criticize Zuckerberg for deleting my Facebook account?

Facebook has shamelessly poisoned political discourse across the globe by providing an unchecked platform for every shade of liar and peddler of conspiracy theory and fake news.
