TikTok is one of the largest social networks. It absolutely is a gatekeeper to information for millions of EU citizens.
TikTok is only 3rd in EU, Facebook has 2x the amount of users
Besides, to quote this article:
> However, the EU probe found that iMessage falls outside the legislation because it is not widely used by businesses.
TikTok is not used as social media for "businesses", why include it then? ;)
Microsoft's Bing? lol what about Linkedin?
Debunking propaganda is not a popular thing apparently
That's a sign! I am the messiah they didn't expect!
Of course businesses use TikTok for marketing; I'd be surprised if there were less than 10000 businesses with a TikTok account in the EU.
LinkedIn is indeed one of the four social networks designated as gatekeepers: https://ec.europa.eu/commission/presscorner/detail/en/IP_23_...
