I got into a Tiktok algorithm bubble for a while where it was just constantly people reporting on congress critter trades in almost near real time... no idea how they did it, but like a week or a month later I would see some publication reporting on it after. So I could definitely see why politicians want to ban it.

Wish I could find that again... I liked to many comedians and now my feed went into another direction
