TikTok Officially Banned in the USA Thread

[BigMoneyGrip]

why exactly do you want it banned?

Log into your vpn and put in Chinese ip or Asian country ip and go on tik tok and search for mindless vids.. You will get zero results… put an US IP then search tik Tok and you will get millions of hits for mindless bullshyt

yes it is.

shouldn't we aiming to apply/enforce user privacy protections on all social media platforms?




tiktok got the same info as every other social media company hosting user generated video and text.

ALL of this is true but here's the catch when your a u.s. company you get leeway and co-opted into being a facilitator of info and data to the govt...

Chinese Apps... FOH...

the keyword being the user has to "search" for it. users should be able to find results related to their queries.

"mindless" videos existed on every major social media platform in the U.S before tiktok ever existed. do you think people will stop creating new ones or they won't be uploaded to lomitif.com or youtube shorts?

According to Warner, who is introducing the bill with Sen. John Thune (R-SD), the RESTRICT Act is superior to the DATA Act because it provides a legal framework for the US to review all “foreign technology coming into America,” not just from China, but also from Russia, North Korea, Iran, Venezuela, and Cuba. It’s designed to give the US “a systemic approach to make sure we can ban or prohibit” emerging technology threats “when necessary.”

more censorship.

Lol. If TikTok cared about "free expression", they'd have the same content allowed in the US in China.
