So Elon’s a “visionary” who wants to turn X into a single website where you can do everything — kinda like Yahoo!
He wants his new MySpaceX portal to be a website…

Whoa, I didn’t know tiktok was so popular. it’s like 1/8 of the entire world population, and considering that only about 70% of the world has internet access, it’s like 18% of all internet users.
Or are lots of these bot accounts, like other social media, and the real numbers are lower?
Pretty much the entire Pacific rim, so it makes sense… but here’s one analysis on bots:
https://www.fraud0.com/resources/tiktok-bots-fake-accounts-scam/
“Initial analysis from us shows a clear picture: up to 97% of all traffic coming through TikTok could be detected as automated bot requests by our software. These are frightening figures that cost many advertising companies a lot of money and waste their ad spend.”
Also:
"In 2022 alone, TikTok removed:
Over 256 million accounts (including accounts suspected to be under the age of 13 and fake accounts – 282% increase vs. 2021)
Almost 160 million fake accounts (increase of over 1,200% (!) compared to 2021)
These numbers are only a fraction compared to Facebook’s total of over 6.5 billion fake accounts removed in 2021."
