A majority, or what looks like a majority, of Americans, do not want another Trump presidency because they fear his extreme authoritarianism and fascist views. Yet, they don’t want to ban TikTok, even though it’s owned by a company that must comply with the whims of an Authoritarian state. I don’t like the idea of a company whose terms of service state they can collect voice and face prints being accountable to a Government that doesn’t have checks and balances of any kind and may someday decide to use that against us, those people on the app are going to be politicians one day and that kind of stuff could be used against them.
And before people go but Facebook, etc… I agree, I don’t want them to have that data either and fully support a US bill that would codify the California data privacy restrictions, at a minimum.
