Guess the Chinese consulate is about to get a whole new appreciation for cat videos and late-night Wikipedia rabbit holes.

Or you could sign a waiver allowing the NSA to send it to the consulate directly. Saves us the hassle.

Lmao, that’s one way to keep the government on their toes! 😂 “Here’s my browser history, enjoy the show!” Next level espionage vibes. 🕵️‍♂️

That’s one way to make a statement! If they ban it, might as well go big .

If the U.S. government bans Rednote, I’m going to the Chinese consulate and handing over my personal data willingly.

Rednote > TikTok > X

do you believe the u,s government has the right to intercept his mail or anyone's mail who might choose to do the same? :jbhmm:


I used TikTok but, honestly, I knew that I shouldn't because I believe everything you said. For that reason, I knew the ban was coming.

My only wish is that either an American company buys TikTok or they copy it.

Edit:

I'll also say that TikTok has been advised for at least 5 years at this point that they needed to sell. Since at least 2019. The fact they did nothing for five years is not a good look on their part. When Microsoft was ordered to stop their antitrust practices, they complied. When Standard Oil was ordered to break up, they broke up. If I'm a tech guy running a multi-billion dollar company and my choices are A) sell the company for $50 billion dollars and cash out or B) get kicked out of the U.S. and lose 70% of your business, I'mma choose A. The founders are either greedy as fukk or there's something else going on. They would probably be able to negotiate a board seat so they'd still be involved in the business after the sale. I don't understand the logic of TT playing these games.

do you believe foreign governments have the right to tell american companies operating in their country to divest themself of their local business to a citizen of their country ? so facebook should be can be forced to sell their facebook india if modi government demanded it? or facebook europe division should be sold if the EU demanded it?

Its not a new precedent for governments to ban apps/websites. They do so via seizing/takedowns. Anyone whose pirated comics, games, movies, books knows. This decision is simply more overt and far reaching to the general public. I believe in free markets, demand will create supply. Tiktok is an amalgam of Vine, Musically, Tumblr and a good portion of the relevant content exists on Youtube ( which pays more ). Tiktok shining grace was its algo which wasn't beholden to advertisers like other sites. The bold is the crux of this argument, people are mourning the loss of their easy access digestible info. There's nothing Tiktok has that Youtube doesn't offer, beyond spamming videos.

all the examples you have cited are of people breaking the law or facilitating breaking the law and operators charged with criminal wrongdoing. congress is on teh record admitted they have no evidence for the claims they are making, they have assumptions.

this is about choice and people chose different from what the government and their lobbyists chose.

it doesn't matter how many "alternatives" there are, the market made it's choice.

Better buy one of these joints so you can have it for good. CapCut is cool but just using app based editing is not a good idea. It can be one tool but you need a backup
I have Davinci Resolve and Final Cut Pro on my Macs, phone is whatever works

The fukking Chinese literally have a message on the app thanking Trump for being willing to work with them. But in typical nikka fashion, you STILL have a problem with it. Yes, your misconstrued optics are the only thing that matters to you, obviously. The horse's fukking mouth is telling you he's "saving the day" in this situation.

We are the only fukking group in the entire world that has a problem with Trump but we literally don't even know why. Democrats have destroyed nikkas brain cells apparently.

No, I didn't vote for Trump but seriously, how much more ridiculous can we be at this point?


the CEO of facebook/meta literally blamed biden adminsistration for censorship and by basically reversing policies right before trump is sworn in as president is signalling that he's the reason for it. a ton of american companies are changing their policies and are making donations to trump. it's all a dog and pony show.

And if any if these people make their choice to fly over to China and start spying for the Chinese, is that still just a choice?

it doesn't matter who has your sensitive data, right, so give it to me.

there's people on that app complaining about housing , living paycheck to paycheck , complaining about the cost of food, bad encounters with law enforcement & etc . i'm not surprised many americans aren't swayed about any argument consisting of national security and data privacy when few have actually felt secure or didn't know companies are siphoning data from them everyday. . tons of videos about how they've experienced talking about something on or neat their phones and soon after google and facebook is showing them ads relating to things they've said but haven't searched.

they are literally protesting and showing the U.S government they're willing to use apps based in china rather than one based in america who are responsible for lobbying the shutdown of the app they used. they don't care and all the U.S can now think to do is continue playing wack-a-mole.

BREAKING: Tom Cotton threatens to ban Xiaohongshu (RedNote).

These fukkers want total control of the American people.

Good luck trying to ban an app that operates within China.

Get onlyfans next

see this is what i'm talking

similar rhetoric is all over social media since friday.

this is just book burning mentality for the digital age.

now the precedent has been set, it's put a battery in the back of censorship enthusiasts. :francis:

Exactly what it is. Whether you like tik tok or not this is nothing to celebrate. It’s another step to regulate and control.


this

just because you don't like Tik Tok or use it, doesn't mean it should be banned

I haven't used it in like 2 years, just look at Tik Tok on here

Obvious theatrics and Chumps ego behind all of this. The CEO of TikTok is going to Chumps inauguration as a guest of honor.


Yup. All of sudden TikTok's wonderful algorithm is going to be linking you to MAGA inspired content :mjpls: People are fukking retarded
