I am unwilling to grant the American government the power to decide what websites I can visit and what applications I can use. I hope all of you can see why this would be a bad idea.
Market Competition = If a foreign-owned company obtains a market edge, that company must sell their company to an American
Freedom = Daddy President must exercise parental control for the entire nation about what computer/phone apps everyone can install
Yes, we need a new law, where TikTok/Bytedance must sell their company to an American, without any other change in practices, who as owner, will simply sell that exact same user information to any foreign company in China and India willing to pay for it, just like our DMV, banks, Amazon, Microsoft, Apple, Facebook, google, etc. already do today, so we can continue to get spammed by callers, that know our name, address, phone #, internet history, by scammers today.

Forget the law and trojan horses that are put into every piece of legislation since the federalists won in your country (others are the same). What i find amazing is (unless bots but highly unlikely 
) that there are in 2024 still persons so naive that they would actually argue for censorship based on owners nationality in the country that was founded on completely different principles. That being amazing what makes it even more amazing to the level of amazing hypocritical insanity is that those people are actually supporting .gov that does exactly the same shit TikTok allegedly enables to everyone, anywhere and anytime.
Luckily time is running out for globalists as it seems gas station masquerading as a country has them beat and people have caught on the "magicians tricks and miss-directions" bar some individuals who appear to have some major brain malfunction...

Hopefully it will be the same investor group that bought Remington years ago.
Some of our (the republic) worst adversaries are those countries our government has aligned with.
The TikTok app has access to pretty much everything on your device, and it is likely siphoning it off and sending it back to China.
Why that want that information? Who knows? BUT, if they are that willing to add what is effectively malware to the app (certainly spyware)... everyone should be asking themselves why...

918 is probably being paid to promote the bill or just a plain commie.
his push to try to rest and ease everyone's minds is questionable. Telling people that nothing bad will happen. It's similar to the train conductor in Germany, reassuring the passengers that the train will take them to a place with housing, food, and a better place. Showers are free.
or Stalin loading up his political adversaries for a free trip to the northern reaches of Siberia.
Fuck off.

I smell a new tick tock challenge hitting the airwaves soon
Most of the data siphoning serves for targeted adds and tailor selection of content .
Imagine the feigned upset if Alexa had Chinese ownership , machine literally listens to your conversation and then that data is packaged and sold for use to sell you crap you do not need.
TikTok needs to up their game in public-private partnerships if you haven't noticed any social media company needs to buy protection if the form of employment of hundreds of ex three letter agencies cadre , that are useless at their job , its just outright mafia-style protection racket, where in the old days you needed to hire, Tony ,Joey ,3rd cousin Fabricio that just came of the boat from Sicily ...........and leave safe open for occasional withdrawal of funds.
What has happened to our country?
I graduated 86. If someone had merely suggested that I was doing something to benefit Russia or China I would have stopped immediately. No one would have had to ask me. Why is it so different today?

Because Russia, China, Saudi Arabia, etc has everyone in their pocket.
Based on what just occurred in this thread alone, it is obvious genocide wouldn’t work. It would decimate the population and the winners would proceed to fight each other until no one was left.
Violence is not the answer.
Violence is not the answer.
Do you happen to all remember how you all threw your freedoms and liberties gladly on the bonfire and demanded "the patriot act" to save you from "bad terrorists".
And who does that now get used on the most?
Sure go all we hate china (while ignoring that the CIA is doing way more than china ever could), so let the government get ultimate control over all your communications without any ability to fight it.
Yep sure hand Xiden the keys to control everything you can or can't use.
Stupid sheep always forging your own chains gleefully.

1. Your government is saying it should be banned because it's owned by foreigners and it could be used to influence our elections.
2. All while your government is letting in millions of foreigners that they want to vote in our elections.
3. Which means #1 is a lie.

There is a thread in the pit about conflict between knowledge and stupidity. I strongly suggest you read it. To poster that graduated in 86 just a short recap why. Because you’re mentally a pussy (or a complete moron) and your brain is unwilling to face hard truths hence you accept easiest propositions there are as in “others are guilty” or “masks will save you” or “just trust us we know” or “its science stupid” shall i go on?
You understand that tiktok is so invasive that it’s collecting your key strokes, as well as other sensitive things off your phone. It’s literallly a collecting everything… and I don’t just mean from the tiktok app.
If that would concern anyone they would pass a data privacy laws , but as all social media is literally vacuuming user data that would be bad for business for many US social media apps as well they collect all the same shit as TikTok. You have ADL and likes literally on tape freaking out over TikTok being the main source of news for folks under 30 and only one ''we do not control and moderate''. The no1 reason for the TikTok ban at the moment is Israel's extremely bad PR on the Genocide in Gaza
TikTok tracks which videos users engage with and how long they do so. The privacy policy also enables the app to track the contents of direct messages, as well as your country location, internet address, and device type. When individuals consent, the platform can also collect users’ exact location, contacts, age, and phone number. It also seems to estimate your household income, and knows how expensive the smartphone or laptop you’re scrolling on is.
That’s a lot of data – but it’s worth noting that TikTok does not collect any more data than other social media companies. A privacy researcher working with the Washington Post found that TikTok gathers less data than Facebook in some cases. While TikTok’s data collection might be on par with competitors, that doesn’t mean it’s not absurd. Too many of the apps we use gather way too much data about us.
Tribe runs US politicians that when told to jump only ask how much cock they need to suck in the process and then make Kamala look like virgin Mary

That tweet is exactly what’s happening. We just get more first amendment removed so Israel doesn’t hear disagreement from others or have people point out that yes indeed there are over 31,000 dead and many women and children are starving to death. And it’s wrong - we should be allowed to speak our minds.
This whole thing is designed to remove the ability to hear or produce ideas different than the chosen narrative. It’s about control.
It is amazing how quickly our elected representatives can all get together and pass "bipartisan" legislation. When they are properly motivated.

Canadians as always on the cutting edge of tyranny
Justin Trudeau’s government has proposed a draconian new law that risks weaponising the concept of ‘hate speech’, enabling judges to put those suspected of harbouring hateful thoughts under house arrest, and establishing a free-to-use compensation complaints scheme that will incentivise woke scolds to target for bankruptcy any Canadians who dissent from progressive orthodoxy.

Different bill.
Same intent.
So just like the Facebook app then?
They are trying to sneak that one in on the coat tails of the one we’re arguing over.
I'm pretty sure people are starting to "notice", which is why the bill is needed in the first place. It never was about TikTok.
Nope, Facebook isn’t even remotely as invasive… and that means you don’t know how bad TikTok is….
So how about when people who have the facebook app find out that right after they were talking with someone about something in person, where the phone was supposedly you know in sleep mode and the apps not running, facebook magically has advertisements right away about what they were just talking about...
Obviously the facebook app was listening to all your actual in person conversations like a full on wire tap and processing all that data back to the company.
I'm not sure how more intrusive you can get...
And you are completely missing the boat. There was a fucking Chinese balloon that traipsed across our launched sites and was only shot down because actual citizens called it out and made a ruckus. No doubt that TT grabs info - so does the entire damn internet. That is actually a minor point as AMERICAN companies do the same. The point is that with the first bill and the other one I posted the intention is to shut down alternate media and independent thought. If you can’t see this there really is no help for you.
TikTok is not fostering independent thought.
Nope. Neither is Facebook, instagram or anything else really. That comes from within. Or some person being able to write a response that challenges one’s presupposition. And that is what is trying to be squashed.
Independent thought is the most valuable thing we have. It creates businesses, moves careers and lives, creates opportunity and can change votes. Imagine how everyone would vote if there were truth in news reporting, let alone anything else?
Politicians, yes. But regular people?
I don’t see regular people as being in the pocket of other countries. But for sure, people are less patriotic and proud of their country today. It’s like it’s some badge of honor to put down this country?
Maybe something isn’t translating correctly, but you have me confused with someone else based on your reply.
Regular people working for government, corporations, small businesses doing r&d, etc. Their children too.
Yup. Go to any college and you’ll find out.
Those people are morons. They aren’t getting their retirement funded by those outside sources like the politicians.
Does not mater one way or another, nobody is forcing anyone to use Tic ToK, the gov does NOTHING that
does not benefit the gov. This just closes another open door for the gov. Control, period.
You’re advocating for a Chinese government program to be allowed to operate here. Because you have a fear of the US government extending its control , you’re willing to allow the Chinese to fuck us.
