There are some really good people on TikTok, people who make a lot of their income from the platform.
If TikTok has to divest, every COngressman should have to divest their Meta stock and every pharmaceutical company, Boeing and Apple should have to move manufacturing from China.
For national security ya know.
If Apps/Websites spying on its users is so bad then they should ban ALL of them from doing it not just TikTok.
Just what info/data is CCP getting from tictoc?
Can’t I just use tictoc and not have to enter private stuff?
Well, maybe CCP gets my voice and image, and AIs it all into some nefarious plot, or fakes access to my financial accounts, (but probably not).
Meanwhile, what does the CCP get that our loving Govt hasn’t already gotten?
And he was right!
It's NOT about your personal information or ID theft. It's about providing the Chinese a network of control. They plant malware and infiltrate your contacts as well.
NOTHING to do with free speech.
We are at a near war with China.
Thus, accepting its spy and propaganda war machine called TikTok here in America is not only insane it’s an act of treason against America’s security.
China has banned America’s social networks within Chinese borders. But WE have to accept all of China’s neworks polluting our homeland. This is absolute humiliation.
This is what Trump once said about China : “They are raping America!”.
If TikTok is allowed to operate under communist CCP... then America has lost all sense of Americanism and dignity.
A horrible and dangerous mistake.
It puts America second, not first.
Again, why should we let communist foreign nations well-known for their anti-american stance, have free access to spy on us and do propaganda against us - while our own platforms are all systematically banned in China?
This goes far beyond American “censorship”. It’s also (at the very least) about respect and basic reciprocity.
Letting foreign military nations have free access to America while we have NON to theirs is simply inconceivable.
WHERE is the reciprocity? WHERE?
So you’re all for Communist spyware, eh?
