My data will be stolen no matter which corporation I go with. Frankly, I don’t care which government they’re under. Hell, if I lived in Texas, I’d have to worry if I talked about driving a friend out of state to get an abortion. China wouldn’t care.
What is China going to do with my data? Who fucking cares?
The whole idea about forcing TikTok to be sold, is that right now TikTok doesn’t have to obey any laws.
I wonder if the forces behind the ban blame TikTok for the Pro-Palestinian bent of the younger generations.
I’m confident that this is an element of things, even if indirectly. It’s been interesting to see the finely tuned, Hasbara propaganda machine become unstable. TikTok has definitely been a component of that
Now, what if end-user applications were forced to be open and audited, so everyone can know exactly what the app is and isn’t doing for China - or America - and not individually choose and make laws based on that.
No, transparency is too terrifying to techno-capitalism.
