For Gen Z, TikTok Is the New Search Engine

If it is, then someone could explain me why TikTok links are not correctly referenced on Google?

It's always the Instagram links that pop out first, is there some shady business within Google?

There was some news article about CIA agents working for the big tech industries [1], and there is currently some effort to ban TikTok it seems [2]

So the open question, why do they push this "new search engine" narrative when it clearly is not the case, just do a google search and you'll see by yourself, alongside all with all the FUD about security/spy ?

it's about searching on tiktok's search, not googling for tt vids.

That's corelated, they can't find the results on google, therefore they fall back on TikTok, hence my open question
