Why is America scared of TikTok?

Kathmandu. What does the US want to see China become? Zhang Yiming, chief executive officer and founder of Byte Dance, explains. Byte Dance is the company under which TikTok operates. There are many IT entrepreneurs in China who have created a variety of apps and search engines. But Zhang is a Chinese entrepreneur who has focused on innovation and exploration.

For the past half-century, America’s main foreign goal has been to produce more jungles. The United States believed that communist China could be transformed into a rich, independent, exploratory and open country like itself. Don’t let a smart idea like Zhang and the weapon of capitalism bring a business to change the world. Zhang is an example of how the United States has succeeded in doing so. The ticket may be owned by China, but the Americans have embraced it as their own. TikTok is also a platform like Facebook, Twitter and Instagram.

The world has been appreciative of America’s tendency to be open about embracing anything, anywhere, to improve living conditions and lifestyles. In American words, the United States always welcomes and respects the entrepreneurship, ability, and innovation of anyone, no matter where they are born. Will the US now welcome Zhang to Wall Street as China’s talent? What will be the result of the partnership of these two? As the US presidential election approaches, Donald Trump and Joy Biden are raising the issue of tickling to attract young voters.

Bankers in New York are also competing to list Byte Dance on the US stock exchange. If it had happened a few years ago, all this would have been possible. But now it is not possible. Most Americans no longer view China as a potential ally, but as a strategic enemy. Trump has launched a jihad against China through Twitter and press conferences. He is of the opinion that dealing with China with understanding and patience is only a weak liberal fantasy. He is of the opinion that by doing so, only power and wealth will go into the hands of an authoritarian enemy nation like China. Encouraged by the US wave of protests against Beijing and the US Republican right, the US Treasury Department has suggested that the Trump administration take action against the TikTok app.

TikTok’s fate indicates that if China continues to challenge the political and economic dominance of the United States by continuing its historic rise, Chinese leaders must understand that China must become a center of technological power, and only then can economic success and diplomatic influence be possible. Otherwise, the geopolitical storm could hamper Zhang’s ambitions. It could even ruin China. In fact, TikTok has shown both the good and the bad of modern China. On the one hand, it has shown the unlimited potential to generate both wealth and ideas, and on the other hand, the terror and controversy caused by its growing totalitarianism.

Never before has a Chinese company been so closely associated with American life. In an age of intrusive technology, big data, and growing internal conflict, the way the United States is treating this one app has even tested its ideals.

Facebook’s controversial gaming app has been released in the App Store

Facebook has removed its special gaming app Facebook gaming app mini game section and released it in Apple’s App Store. Because of this mini-game section, Apple has rejected this Facebook app from the App Store many times.

What is memorable here is that the Facebook gaming app is a live stream gaming app, in which the user can watch live. The Facebook gaming app will compete with platforms like Twitch. Facebook unveiled its gaming app last April.

Originally launched for Android users, the app was made available for iOS devices four months later. Facebook’s gaming app is seen as a feature gaming app, which is available in the Android app, but not for iOS users.

However, due to the mini games section, this app of Facebook could not get approval in Apple’s App Store. The company has since been forced to remove this section.

Sheryl Sedberg, Facebook’s chief operating officer, told The Verge: “Unfortunately, we had to completely remove the game play feature of the Stand Alone Facebook gaming app in order to get Apple’s approval.”

In this case, Apple has been saying that the Facebook gaming app has not followed the guidelines of the App Store. Facebook has claimed that this app is a gaming app. But 95 percent of it is used for gaming streaming.

A 21-year-old Nepali youth discovered Instagram’s ‘bug’ and won a हजार 6,000 prize

Cyber security researcher Saugat Pokharel has discovered a bug (security vulnerability) on Instagram. The 21-year-old discovered on Instagram that the user’s deleted photo and direct message had been on the company’s server for a long time.

According to Europe’s new data policy, in 2018, Instagram provided users with the facility to download their data. Taking advantage of the facility, Saugat downloaded his data. The downloaded data also included a photo he had deleted a year earlier and a direct message.

According to Instagram’s policy, if a user deletes a photo or direct message, the deleted message and photo must be removed within 90 days. This means that the company’s servers do not have such data.

However, in the data downloaded by Saugat, a photo older than 90 days is still on the server and that photo was also downloaded.

“The data that I deleted a long time ago has not been deleted by Instagram from its servers,” he told TechCrunch. The bug was fixed last month. ‘

“Investigators have long reported that even deleted data stays on the server and that the information is downloaded when the data is downloaded,” an Instagram spokesperson said. “Now the problem has been resolved.” There is no misuse of such data. ‘

For finding the bug, Instagram has given a reward of 6,000 US dollars, or 720,000 Nepali rupees.

Following the misleading information about Corona on social media, 800 people died

At least 800 people have died worldwide in the first three months of the year due to misleading information about the corona virus, researchers say. A study published in the American Journal of Tropical Medicine and Hygiene found that.

According to the research, 5,800 people were hospitalized during the period after looking at misleading information on social media. Most of the victims were found to have consumed methanol and alcohol-based cleaning products.

These people believed in the misleading information that these items could cure the virus. Earlier, the World Health Organization (WHO) warned that the epidemic of epilepsy was spreading faster than the epidemic.

According to the WHO, conspiracy theories, rumors, religious and cultural superstitions are increasing the number of deaths and other incidents.

Misleading information took my life

The study found that people took an overdose of cow’s urine, ginger and vitamins, believing the rumor to be a method of treatment. Many people lost their lives due to the serious effects of such inedible substances.

In addition, online rumors led to violent mob attacks in India and mass poisoning in Iran. Telecommunications engineers and phone towers were also attacked due to conspiracy theories linked to FiveG.

Similarly, many scammers had sold ineffective interest rates on social media saying that it would stop the epidemic.

Conspiracy threat to Covid 19 vaccine

Even with the Covid 19 vaccine, there is an increased risk of anti-vaccine campaigners abusing social media. They risk spreading misinformation against the vaccine and urging people not to use the vaccine.

Social media is removing and labeling misleading information about the vaccine. However, a recent poll in the United States revealed a surprising fact.

It has been revealed that 28 percent of Americans still believe that Bill Gates is trying to implant microchip implants in people through vaccines.
