HORRIBLE precedent. Anyone supporting this is supporting paid for censorship. Miss me with the national security and "brain rot" arguments, that's just pretext, this country actively promote several things FAR more harmful to society. This is purely about money and control nothing more nothing less. Pathetic.
Exactly what it is. Whether you like tik tok or not this is nothing to celebrate. It’s another step to regulate and control.

Well that's the nature of the beast. Can't adapt? Then you fall sooner or later. They might've fail even if Tiktok stayed. Some will be able to move on from tiktok, some won't.
TikTok is the adapt lol. People aren’t trying to make tv commercials or some shyt when they literally have and can see the numbers on TikTok. I live In Charlotte and mad influencers are going to take a big hit out here. A lot of people aren’t trying going to take big hits on there, it’s why these main pages are trying hard to drive people to their other pages since TikTok is outta here soon. Some American owned app better look at what TikTok did and try that.. don’t see it happening though.

Lol you really want to act like there aren’t a million other ways China is getting our data…?

They already got it from twitter, Instagram and Facebook :mjlol:

From the government standpoint that’s the issue and I can’t say I disagree. Our government is basically saying we can be on that fukk shyt with our people but china cant. Of course our government does the same thing and collects our data from American based companies like Facebook and IG. They use this data to track us, spy on us, and all kind of crazy ass shyt. Well they are saying that’s cool for us to do, but why would we let china who are our long time opps do this? And I agree. Now TikTok was like nikka what the fukk, you got other Chinese companies like Temu that are required to share user data with our government like us and they not getting banned. And I agree with them on that as well

There will be something else that people eventually gravitate to.

As long as they don’t ban YouTube or the Coli I’m good.

Real talk.

Ban tiktok but run 24/7 gambling ads with celebrity cosigns.

Any company in china gotta hand over access to user data whenever they say so. Tik Tok got a few hundred million US users. Our government is saying hell naw, that dangerous, the Chinese government don’t need access to all that data from US citizens to do lord knows what. Some people argue that US companies like Facebook and IG turn their data over to the US government so what’s the difference. The difference is it’s china and those our fukking opps nikka.

Now with that said, anyone who think china aint already got that data from tick tok dumb as hell. And there are other china based companies that have to turn over data too, but none of them as big and widespread as tik tok. If this ban goes through, you will like see more companies get banned in the future though
