Are people really stupid enough to think apps like tiktok only use the data/videos you supply to them? They are notorious for scavenging all the data off your phones and networks in the background. Lots of Apps do it, butnone of the geniuses using them read the fine prin


So I'll ask again, what specifically would China be getting from Becky's phone that is so dangerous to our national security? Hell, China manufactures 90% of everything we use here including electronics... that TCL TV you all love so much is probably more dangerous. This is just such a weird flex from trump.

You wouldn't last a day in any type of position that deals with information or physical security. It'd be all reactive and no proactivity.

You can stay on the Internet, but should find a thread that's more in line with your IQ.

Maybe one of the WorldStar fights is more up your alley.

No WeChat is going to suck for those of us who occasionally have to go work in China, everything goes through WeChat.

For Tik Tok a US developer can just pull off an old Chinese trick and make an identical app.- for what Americans use it for this would satisfy the US market.

The cheeto apparently wants the government involved in the company.

Oracle and ByteDance have submitted a proposal that would spin out TikTok’s global business into a new US company that would have an all-American board and a security committee headed by someone with government security clearances.

How is this Ok to people? You want the government in all your companies?


Its funny how many people agree with banning tiktok. Isn't an American one of the biggest investors in it? Either way, Facebook will gain from this more than anyone. Instagram has Reelz or whatever it is call now, which is like tiktok (for those who don't know FB owns Instagram).

It will be interesting to see what FB stock does next week. If FB stock goes up as a result of the US government banning tiktok, can that be considered stock manipulation?

I saw random shite about what they COULD do. It still is a really illogical and inefficient way to get anything of value, if they actually were doing any of that.

Some of you guys are funny... Trump could literally shite on your front porch and you'd be here talking about why that was a great and necessary thing

No, it's actually a very smart way to go about it. Gather as much incriminating data on teens and young adults, and hold onto it until they become a prominent figure in the country and then use it as a means of control.

You need to learn that "could happen" is the basis of all security. Do you lock your house because someone will break in, or could break in?

It must be fatiguing going through life this window-licking stupid? Is there a topic you post in you don't exhibit this?

But, you did work in that pithy "boomer" remark. Kudos, I guess.

Its crazy. I never seen anything like it.. His loyal supporters blindly support anything he does. Their loyalty is even stronger for Trump than it is the party.

He values loyalty to him more than anything. He wants people around him who are more loyal to him than they are to the country an I don't know how, but he is able to get people to be loyal to him.

In away he reminds me of Jimmy Swaggart. I see Jimmy Swaggart and think it is obvious he is full of shite, but the people who buy into him are extremely loyal to him. Both can do whatever they want and their loyal supporters will go down defending them no matter what.

I guess you're cool with an authoritarian communist regime that abuses human rights and uses slave labor stealing your data, cool. You liberals seem to gravitate to that. I think your cats need their bowls refilled, might want to go check.

All of the stupid shite they're doing on that app is already in the public domain. This is so ridiculous. As someone else said, if Obama had done this you'd be losing your shite.

Judging by your choice of words you are ok with this. Unless you are for true capitalism, but something tells me you aren't.
