LOL, TC went batshit crazy a while back. This bill is no more “dangerous” than existing laws that prohibit the sale of high-end tech to China. Alleging that free speech is endangered by this law is like saying, “this is how the gubmint stops us from having computers.”

TikTok
Not a problem with me, simply because of China. However, I’d assume something in the bill would give the Government more over each to go after Twitter/X or any other platform that allows people to post opinions that piss off politicians and so-called news organizations.

Don't care for or use TT but what I do know is that if you give government/politicians an inch they will take a mile.

Would suck. I run a pretty successful business through Tiktok and wouldn't want to rebuild it somewhere else
If you go to TikTok’s account the CEO explains how many people will lose jobs and revenue. I also use it for business purposes, along with other social media, and a lot of people don’t think about how this helps business. I hate China but they and other ppl already know everything about us.

They will use this same law to ban twitter one day. Mark my words

DHS was targeting gamers that spoke about DEI policies that were ruining game franchises. It was TikTok videos that exposed this with a list of “DEI consultant games” and after the video went viral, gamers started boycotting the games.

None of them are attempting, or even desire, to get rid of it. It is about the US government gaining control, which they do not currently have, of it.

Doesnt seem like it...

WASHINGTON (AP) — The House on Wednesday passed a bill that would lead to a nationwide ban of the popular video app TikTok if its China-based owner doesn’t sell its stake, as lawmakers acted on concerns that the company’s current ownership structure is a national security threat.

Youtube doesn't have a shop/ecommerce platform built in as robust as Tiktok Shop

bothers you, then YOU are part of the problem with the platform. Grow TF up.
what if we have a problem with it just because we dont believe the government should decide these kinds of things
how about if you do believe the government should be policing stupid shite like this...you are part of the problem .
you realize supporting this makes you a big government commie right? you literally are supporting the government censoring what apps you can buy and censoring free speech and the free market.
if you support the ban...well frick you, little bitch

Aren't we lucky our lawmakers are this concerned over "national security threats"? They are just like an over-protective Mama Bear...
OH WAIT

We are witnessing the rise of the Christian Reich in this country. The pendulum is about to swing hard the other way.

Isn’t the cat already out of the bag? Doesn’t Chyna already have everyone’s data? Govt has been talking about this for years and has done nothing about it.

Have you not seen the college aged sluts dancing in skimpy clothing? Any straight male should be outraged over this
