Why Should We Worry About TikTok?

John Sutter: We aren't really taking seriously enough the mental health epidemic amongst young Americans. 25% of girls aged between 11 and 17 suffer from serious depression, Jonathan Hake told me that just the other day. He says TikTok was sort of deprioritizing via algorithmic bias or algorithmic interference. The app provides a platform for the CCP to meddle in our own election simply by manipulating the algorithm. It's very hard for us to fully understand what it's like to be an American teenager online all the time with these extraordinarily addictive apps.
