I think other countries have already, and with the China/Iran news it should be a done deal to ax it...

The army has had it banned from government issued phones for several months so this doesn't surprise me.

Not trying to hijack a thread, but I bet it’s about to be school teacher heroes in a month or so. I can already see the groundwork being laid on social media to hype their courageous return in the midst of the global pandemic.

I am no longer interested in reading, hearing or otherwise being informed WRT what some leader or another is considering. Action interests me. Talk does not interest me. What a person is "considering" bores me. What a person DOES interests me.

Other than the colossal waste of time, what is the perceived concern/fear with these apps?

The genZ melt would be so great to watch. They’ve never had anything taken away from them in their lives. They won’t be able to handle it

That might not be a very popular move. There’s over 37 million TikTok users in the US.

Tiktok Is sending everything you’re doing on your phones where you’re going what you’re buying everything back to China. And China is controlling what content gets promoted.
