All platforms—not just TikTok—should be scrutinized for how they handle user data. TikTok collects data similar to other apps (including Twitter, where CSIS posted this). CSIS's analysis appears to be based on a flawed 3rd party report, mythbusted here: https://t.co/r8YodEghGd /1

#Mariupol. Or what’s left of it.
It was a city of a size of Antwerp, Nuremberg, Dublin, The Hague, Lisbon, Miami or Minneapolis.

'Look for the helpers. You will always find people who are helping.'"

Leaving this with you tonight, recorded this day 2021
A beautiful melody written by @juliefowlis to accompany words from Sorley MacLean’s ‘Lìonmhorachd’

‘Multitude of the skies,
Golden riddle of millions of stars,..
...a universe moving in silence,
A mind alone in its bounds.’
