Seems like people are going off the headline only, so here are some more details. While the results are predictable, it's still worth exploring for how bad it is

yeah agreed with your sentiment. I think it’s good to have an intuition about something, but it’s much better when there’s data to back it up.
Cuz then, they can do the same with others, say Youtube or other streaming services, and start to compare the numbers, like % of ads, what types of ads, how long are the ads relative to content, how many of these ads are political, how many of these ads may be harmful, …
Having these numbers can be quite handy for other researchers and regulators to look into these issues more concretely, rather than just say, “as your brothers and sisters already know, tiktok serves ads”
