It's a dangerous threat to national security when a social media company has close ties to or is flat out working at the directive of a government to censor/manipulate information.

they are all trying to manipulate you.. keep you addicted.... sell you shite.

all we are accomplishing here is allowing the LEAST trustworthy body in the known universe to decide who gets to manipulate us.

All the guys in this thread who can barely power on a laptop doing mental gymnastics to waffle their position to support Trumps waffling to allow the app from CHY NA.

Newsflash Trump is being opportunistic and trying to snag some votes by doing this by being the I’ll save Tik Tok candidate.



As an actual information security professional who has never changed my position on this. I was so happy when Trump as pushing it. Happy now.


You cannot let a hostile foreign nation who is actively engaged in cyber warfare with us have an opium addiction platform pumping our population full of brain melting bullshite. An entire generation is literally brain dead because of this monster.


Sure Facebook and the like are very problematic as well and are used domestically for propaganda. However that doesn’t mean we leave the door wide open for China to fan the flame.


The sooner we get this disease of a platform removed from our population. The better.
