Probably a good thing but I never downloaded the app in the first place.

I also avoided the Russian Kaspersky anti-virus.

I am completely ambivalent. Never seen a or heard a TikTok video that I know of. I purposely avoid any and all links to it.

Am the same with FaceSpace, X, podcasts, etc..

I need FB and X for work.

Don't have the others.

Had IG where I only posted about my dogs and it mysteriously vanished.

It's probably driven because the intel agencies are butthurt that Tik Tok won't share info with them

Partially this.

But also because Tik Tok has some right-wing content that isn't being algorithmically snuffed out.

Similar to the beef our gov has with the current Twitter.

We've gotta save the chillren!
We've gotta protect the people!

The only thing the government gives a shite about is that china is playing the game better than them. They want to force the sale of an internationally owned company so that they can have more control over it, not to protect anyone, but use the same platform the same way the chinese use it.

No one should support this.

ETA: And the fact that it was included in the foreign aide funding bill is a bright, shining example of why our system is fricked.

Very dumb and counter-intuitive to the principles on which this country was founded....and I absolutely hate Tik Tok.

It's what I watch when I'm taking a poop. Much more entertaining that Instagram and X. Don't even check Twitter/X anymore as it's just a bunch of people yelling at each other, couldn't tell you the last time I laughed at something on there. And that's all I really want to do on any of them.

It's one of the more impressive coups by the jooish lobby, as they will own it shortly.

Edit: Sorry. I misspelled AIPAC.

That scares big Government more than it being Chinese owned. Government can control what’s on Fb and Instagram to an extent. They can’t control what’s on TikTok.

I have never used TikTok since I believe that it is a Chinese spy device. I don't really care if others use it but think it should not be accessed from government issued devices.

They lost twitter so TikTok needs to be in their portfolio to be able to spread their propaganda

I hate TikTok but I don’t think it should be banned.

I think the internet should be regulated, like radio. I should need a license to even be typing this.
