    "I was on TikTok for 30 days: it is manipulative, addictive, and harmful to privacy"

    "TikTok is not a suitable place for content that is purely informative or educational, that follows a normal learning pace, that lasts more than 1 minute, that has an introduction, a development, and a thoughtful conclusion, that does not use filters, music or ‘pyrotechnic’ effects, that does not try to be catchy or oversimplify things, that does not focus on dazzling in the first 3 seconds.

    There is no time for deeper reflections, critical thinking or autonomy to process if what was seen makes sense or not.

    Everything is so fast that viewers just have the content pushed down their throats. Users are passive and paralyzed, waiting to be amazed."
