      basically yes, but we can interact with the watcher. i was a tiktok live host selling clothes and electronic and we show, try on, explained the product that the viewers want us to show by request they sent on the comment

      It's quickfire QVC, but it works for me. I've brought a lot of stuff after seeing it on Tiktok, although not in this livestream format where the influencer talks like an auctioneer. Most of stuff I brought are homeware, after seeing how they work in shorts.

      True, I remember an article once that compared this with what the British did to the Chinese with opium. Western societies are addicted to these cheap Chinese products and apps, while the Chinese kids are protected with a lot of restrictions and a more educational version of tiktok.

      @@houseplant1016All the entertainment apps in China have restrictions for children who were under 16 or 18(minority). The restrictions depend on a country’s policy. UK and US do not have such kinds of policies for teenagers, that’s why Tiktok did not run the same way in UK or US as it did in China. I am not arguing anything but telling the facts.

    We (Bangladeshi) students are currently peacefully protesting against quota,but Student League an organization of the government ambushed us.Nearly two hundred people were injured and many were killed in the attack. At this time we need you very much because the journalists of our country are on the side of the government.They have no news on this issue.They have not promoting about on this issue.Seeking freedom has now become a crime for us.
