There is no evidence that it is banned. ByteDance just made the same app for the PRC market

Well the CCP does exert considerable control over TikToks parent company ByteDance. The CCP has already utilized data from TikTok to track protestors and other "dissidents"

No the CCP does not own Tik Tok but it might as well own it.
Unfortunately this situation is not unlike what the US government likely does. However, hopefully this precedence building policy recognizes that data privacy from 3rd party entities is needed. Will that standard be applied to US companies? Not likely any time soon but I'm optimistic.
That's odd. I'm surprised they blocked it for you. I also work for the US federal government and I haven't had any issues with using Proton at work. I wonder why the difference.
If the vehicle already had a fully operational FSD and supercharging paid for why is it so hard to allow a new vehicle owner use the capabilites that were already in the car?
It doesn't cost Tesla any more money for one owner to use those features for an extended amount of time vice two owners to use it for the same amount of time.
It's unfortunate that Tesla is keeping up its anti consumer practices.
As a resident in Michigan, this is good news but definitely not something we need to focus on at this point in time.
The state government needs to focus on the basics and by that I mean clean water. Flint still has a water crisis and many cities like Brenton Harbor as well as northern Michigan towns face the same issues.
It is possible they can fix the water infrastructure and provide free community college since they do have a large budget surplus.
A fair question.
I view him as unbiased because he doesn't promote Joe Rogan but also doesn't dismiss the the good aspects of Joe Rogan. He views Joe Rogan as nuanced as he should.
Johnny Harris didn't rush to label him Joe Rogan as horrible or great.
One good way to get an understanding is to watch the summary of Joe Rogan that Johnny Harris, a YouTube journalist did.
While it won't give you a summary of each episode that Joe Rogan does it will give you an unbiased look at what Joe Rogan's program is all about
Third party voting being a recent addition? Have you heard of Ross Perot? Have you heard of the Whig party? Third party voting has been around for centuries. The Democrats and Republicans just want you to think it's not a thing.
The threshold for participation of a candidate unfairly keeps 3rd parties out so the Democrats and Republicans can keep power.

I know the CCP in China is way ahead of you. They already have a social credit system. You wanted a passport? Maybe you shouldn't have spoken out against government policy.
It doesn't sound authoritarian at all /s
But why can't those advertisers just block him as an individual?
We are now in a world where accusations now result in a de facto guilty verdict. We already saw this with Johnny Depp and Amber Heard.
No need for YouTube to blanketly make the decisions for all advertisers
For at least your first 2 points, I would argue that websites are designed with features and are exclusive to chromium based browsers (Chrome, Brave, and Edge).
The Bitwarden issue may just be Bitwarden related.
I haven't observed the other items so I can't speak to them.
For my Ford, the manual was very helpful. Taking a look at the fuse box diagram, I was able to remove the fuse for the modem.
Thankfully I was able to verify that the modem power was secured because when I enter the infotainment settings to view the modem serial number, I can no longer see the modem serial number. It is just blank.
This won't work for all vehicles because the modem may have the same fuse as critical equipment.
