To be clear, they're just banning it on federal/government devices, which probably shouldn't have had TikTok apps on them in the first place tbh

I agree, but it's not that weird that most people don't. We had already previously decided that handing over all our personal information to American big tech companies (who surely put in some backdoors for the NSA, too) was worth it for literally anything you want to do on the internet. To the regular person, what's the difference? Chinese elite, American elite, it's all the same; everyone wants a piece so they can own every little piece of our lives.

The US government has talked about doing it. I actually think they should.

Federal just refers to matters that fall under the jurisdiction of the national government.

It shows how useless news media even is. Didnt actually do any investigating.

They do it because it's a threat to their power base.

PRESUMABLY here it's done because people are harming themselves by exposing themselves to the platform unwittingly.

Ah i've never used "Vine" style apps before, I just assumed it was ADHD zoomers who frequented that type of content.

I mean they are only banning it from government devices, which it should have been already.

Oh defo agree but youd have to be silly to think the US wouldnt use data collected in China. The US spies on its own citizens using social media. No reason to think they wouldnt do the same in China if they used Social Media by US companies.
