Gatekeeping information. TikToks Live feature is the most important aspect of the platform. TikToks Live allows users to broadcast real-time information on disaster zones that would otherwise be filtered through Corporate Media operations. Its live algorithm is more powerful then Google, and Meta.

Submission Statement:
Now YouTube, and Meta have Live features. But from my personal experience I’ve almost never seen it used. TikToks on the other hand pushes breaking news stories in real time. I’ve seen important events like Jan 6, Canadian Vaccjne Trucker Protests, Maui Fires, California Fires and just a bunch of other important events that would otherwise be covered by Legacy Media and filtered content.
I saw Police opening the doors on TikTok Live on Jan 6. I saw Truckers peacefully protesting chilling in their trucks. I don’t need propaganda when you have real life people live streaming events.
The market is completely rigged against small players. It’s not just this. The PDT rule sets rules for only the small players too. Never forget when they turned off the buy button to protect the rich.
