In my opinion, TikTok should not be banned in the USA, even though such a ban may benefit the 𝕏 platform.
Doing so would be contrary to freedom of speech and expression. It is not what America stands for.— Elon Musk (@elonmusk) April 19, 2024
I read the bill. It includes ANY and all sites or apps where someone can make a public comment or reply. forums, blogs, even some ecommerce features where a customer can make a comment on a product are at risk. Even host server services that host sites they don’t like are at risk.
This is a “blanket” law being disguised as a “TikTok only” bill. IT IS NOT, it is universal across the net. This is one of the most dangerous government take overs of the internet ever. It will destroy it as an open public forum. And it will be policed selectively of course.
Here is the kicker Elon... It also includes X if they want. So it may not benefit X in the end anyhow.
