  • Albania's opposition Saturday protested the left-wing government's decision to shut down TikTok, calling the move censorship ahead of May 11 parliamentary elections.

The Albanian opposition has staged protests against the government's decision to ban TikTok, alleging that the move is a form of censorship aimed at stifling dissent ahead of the upcoming elections. Critics argue that the ban, which was implemented citing security concerns, is a strategic effort by the ruling party to control the narrative and limit the opposition's ability to reach younger voters through the popular social media platform. The opposition claims that this restriction infringes on freedom of expression and is an attempt to manipulate the electoral process. Meanwhile, the government insists that the ban is necessary to protect national security and prevent the spread of misinformation. This controversy has sparked a broader debate on digital rights, censorship, and the role of social media in democratic processes.
