Do you think it would be possible to show this programmatically? As in scrape n posts from TikTok and Reels and show the first displays CCP tendencies?

Or is this like a general US freedom China dictator logic

It actually doesn't matter whether TT has done it already or not.

What matters is that it has the __capability__ of doing it, in ways that would be difficult to detect, when it proves expedient to do so.

    Yup, but of course more than one person has to agree for this to actually happen. Which is not the case for other apps, like Twitter/X. If Musk wants to remove a government, he has only to promote "free speech" and let falsehoods and misinformation dominate his platform.

      geopolitics aside could a turing machine identify misinformation / programatically check whether something is true or not? because even among humans there is no agreement
