Freakin' tiktok is mucking up things again. Luckily a court here upheld the law requiring it to sell off or be banned.

Problem goes WAY beyond TikTok.

In any case I'm not a fan of the decision because if the law actually says foreign propaganda is just cause to annull an election (which seems questionable . .but I'm no expert on Romanian law), they'll never be another election, because there's literally no way to prevent that.

There need to be steps taken at the educational level regarding courses teaching how future voters can discern information online and verify/cross-check claims. But of course any attempt to do that here would be decried itself as "propaganda" because fact-checking has a "liberal bias."
