The French government has banned TikTok in New Caledonia following pro-independence protests.
When asked about the legality of the measure, it basically replied that since the territory is not subject to the EU’s jurisdiction, it’s perfectly allowed to ban social platforms however it likes.
What in the colonial crap is this bullshit. For fuck’s sake.
