relatively little advertising compared to other social media platforms but the ad industry is becoming aware of the ups potential. reach and creators are seeing the possibilities and the brands are seeing the possibilities so we're at the threshold where product placement and product presentation is being integrated into the content with. companies can buy it space and appear for instance when you launch the tick tock. advertising videos also that here in the users feed like this fast food chain ad the hash tag breakdancer is supposed to encourage participation meanwhile unboxing videos are also being posted. and the american influence is that king found this clever way of promoting a food delivery service. nobody actually wants to see advertising on the call the branded content still has

differences so that for instance clips dealing with homosexuality are kept from going viral in muslim regions. but. what's interesting is that limiting the visibility of certain content on take part is not so much about deleting it as it is about limiting the reach of certain posts . by people. it's clumsy to just delete a video immediately noticed that as a user and see it is censorship but here i just think something isn't going viral you know it's not getting clicked on peaked at around 600 clicks the. creator tries making something out as well as after the source told its creators do take note when something isn't popular and try making different content instead what went under in the tick tock says its goal is to create a positive environment for creativity free from bullying and hateful comments that

sounds good but tick tocks methods are questionable for instance it limited the reach of videos of these able people saying this was to protect them but this also kept these users visible and china content is censored much more the chinese version of the app called the un is separated from the rest of the world by a fire wall users in china offer the extra features they can use face recognition to. videos with a specific person or skin outfits and all of the same style online do you use take talk does the fact that it's a chinese at affect your trust levels and what do you think of it limiting critical content let us know on you tube or facebook c.e.o. suing.
