    This comment section is astounding.

    If you think it’s good that congress passed a ban of a social media platform tied to a bill funding two foreign wars you’re either a fed or delusional.

      Seriously. The real solution is comprehensive privacy protection and consumer information export controls for all companies operating within the US.

      This whole thing is just going to give an American company the capability to use Tik Tok to spy on people and control information, which is barely better.

      And then they’ll likely sell the data to China anyway. Data brokers exist and make a fuck ton of money on us.

      All three of these pieces of legislation are what a Real True American would support. If you refuse to endorse these bills, we’re going to have to note it on your social credit score.
