It's not a ban of tiktok when they are being forced to sell to a usa company.
And in what way will free speech be hurt? Now I can make jokes about Xi Jinping looking like Winnie the pooh on tiktok once the USA owns it. If anything speech will be more free and this is a shitpost from a China shill.
Fuck the CcP and Fuck Xi jinping! - free enough for you?
Why are you so angry? I never meant or even said what you are implying i did. Quiet the contrary: read the wikipage again, its about when it is justified to act like the side you want to ban.
No, the concern is not what people will see on TikTok but what data TikTok is offshoring from their devices to servers in China. It's a massive surveillance operation.
Now, why would you be trying to dress this up as a free speech issue, I wonder?
Except they already made Oracle handle all that and they can easily legislate privacy protections without banning TikTok entirely. And, again, it is my right as a citizen to install whatever app I want even if it is spying on me, just like the rest of my apps do. I could film every second of my life and put it up on Facebook or a personal website and the Chinese government could watch it and there's not a damned thing the US government can do about it.
Why don't you install chinese wechat version ? Oh no you don't because government like China restriced acces to it. The point is to protect the mass that doesn't know they are being spy on, if you want to use it jist grab the apk from internet.
