Well I don't use TikTok and couldn't care less if they get banned. If you actually read the bills that's getting passed like the RESTRICT act in the US you'd realize it's not about banning TikTok and it has numerous vague and concerning clauses that infringes on your privacy. My opinion is always have better privacy laws and enforce it equally on all companies. When my government blatantly tries to steal more of my data and pretend they're actually doing me a favor I'd rather the foreign adversary have it for free.

Well I agree with everything you said there, except for the last 9 words of it.

To each their own. Ideally no company should have those data that can be used for spying by any government. But if I have to choose, I personally fear government overreach more than anything else. We can agree to disagree here.

Rules:

  1. Be civil and nice.
  2. Try not to excessively repost, as a rule of thumb, wait at least 2 months to do it if you have to.
