Stop talking about the data, start talking about the political interference. There's a reason Trump is against the ban now.

My data will be stolen no matter which corporation I go with. Frankly, I don’t care which government they’re under. Hell, if I lived in Texas, I’d have to worry if I talked about driving a friend out of state to get an abortion. China wouldn’t care.

if china could, they would 100% use that to make some americans life miserable. don't forget: they started the info war. they want to weaken the US, so they can expand, take control and finally invade

Now, what if end-user applications were forced to be open and audited, so everyone can know exactly what the app is and isn't doing for China - or America - and not individually choose and make laws based on that.
No, transparency is too terrifying to techno-capitalism.

What is China going to do with my data? Who fucking cares?

Do you own window blinds?

Sure, but in this case you aren't choosing between "blinds" and "no blinds"
You're choosing who gets peak in your windows. It's either going to be the US or China, and quite frankly, I'm far more afraid of the US because I live here. The US can actually use my data against me. China almost certainly can't.

Suppress stories about Tiben, Hongkong, the Uyghurs, Taiwan... Hey, whatever happened to Gedhun Choekyi Nyima?

I wonder if the forces behind the ban blame TikTok for the Pro-Palestinian bent of the younger generations.

I'm confident that this is an element of things, even if indirectly. It's been interesting to see the finely tuned, Hasbara propaganda machine become unstable. TikTok has definitely been a component of that

The whole idea about forcing TikTok to be sold, is that right now TikTok doesn't have to obey any laws.

Who is out there saying this? That's ridiculous. Are foreign people exempt from our laws when they visit? No? Then why would you believe foreign companies are exempt?
