“Can you tell me if you turn on airplane mode, can tik tok communicate with the airplane?”

I wish they’d come together on other issues like they did on TikTok. What about starvation, homelessness an school shootings? What about those? But they wanna ban an app.
Yeah school shootings are fine, apps are not. Because guns are their source of income
By banning the app kids might have a chance to be essential.. but why would they want to pay for an education to be something actually essential like a doctor when they can get paid to be an actual moron
The Government is scared of TikTok because they don’t have control over it. It’s not about data. It’s about the fact of the American government wanting to control Everything. Don’t know it until you’ve tried it.

Watch how Congress handled it though... Absolute boomers.
I mean Twitter is 10x worse
Its quite funny that only because of tiktok I have seen journalists talk about the actual bill and how it is about much more than just banning tiktok. It would give the government broad powers to ban ANY social media they want to. Its a scary and authoritarian bill.
They can ban anything anyway - that there is an actually democracy in any real free sense is a joke - plus, if they wanted to ban people, places, things, they can. It is up to the ppl to vote them out, we need to vote all these clowns out each election, no incumbent should get another term. That is a solution to start with. Rheir club is too powerful but in this case. TIKTOK needs to go.
TikTok has a long history of tracking its users' online behavior without their consent, and in 2021 it started automatically gathering biometric data. Further, according to The Ruck, in 2022 “an independent researcher found code allowing TikTok to log keystrokes.”Nov 2, 2022
Its not about Tiktok! The Restrict act allows the government to take away, ban and control any Media. Video games, Movies, Apps, Desktop apps, everything over 1Million Users! Its control and taking our Freedom of Speech and press!

Wait, do people really use Tik tok as a source of education???? And on the other hand, why does the United States care if literally other companies like Facebook or Twitter do the same. I am afraid that the United States will not be destroyed by other countries, but by itself. A country full of people who depend on social networks, educate themselves from horrible and unsafe sources like Tik Tok, and attack other countries as if they were to blame for the declining situation that the United States is experiencing in recent years.
I agree with you 100%
It is so scary that this is the way our world works. No wonder why these tech companies had to put a halt to their AI advancements because sooner or later, if now already seeing it in the works, a human won’t be able to fully function without a device controlling/manipulating their decisions and thought processes.
Grills? No. As a matter of fact, the CEO of Tiktok grilled them up nice and good. We all the main reason of banding the app is because Congress is scared China will overpower them. 3 to 4 banks has already gone bankrupt.

It’s because some people do not think it’s a big deal about their personal info or activities being viewed by someone in China while they got what they want from this app. They never thought of big data can track everything, influence people, but just think of themselves at the moment. Wait until it opens all the ports in their phones and start talking to them by itself before they know it’s serious.
So any "monopoly" or resources share among specific groups and their inner circles is much safer
Then ban every social network

Hahaha it will 😂😂😂 many states did and many countries are doing it 👍🏽
Here in India we banned it as a protest over China building a dam around the Indian boarder and then opening its gates and flooding an entire Indian village in Arunachal Pradesh followed by Chinese killing our soldiers in a brawl over geopolitical dispute and we took action straight away by boycotting Chinese apps among other products.
Also on my visit to China the Chinese TikTok had a lot of constructive content about science, math, engineering, art and not to mention promotion of business on it which was rewarded, compared to western TikTok version where a lot of stuff was just opinions, people talking about their relationships failing, random dance videos etc and even with quality content about business promotion were shown they were shown very less compared to their random counterparts.
But then again maybe you guys have it different in the US so I cant really say much
Everyones for you page is curated to show them videos they watch. Havent seen any dance or relationship videos in a long time. Mine is mostly about current political news, investigstive journalism, my niche hobbies and some tv show stuff
So A) India banned it for political reasons just like the US is about to do even if we're pretending otherwise.
B) The CCP has an extreme amount of control over everything, especially online. More control means less freedom. This is their attempt to forcibly mold the citizens (including kids) into the people they want. Guess what? People will go elsewhere for fun content. They're not going to spend hours watching math or science. (There are ways to get around the Great Firewall of China.) Who wants to watch that after spending all day at school? And there is content on TikTok with those things. It's there if you *want* it. That's the great thing about TikTok is that it gives you what you want rather than force feeding you what an oppressive government thinks you need to have. You want vids on engineering? Go for it. There are plenty.
If people can't see the evils of Tik-Tok or just can't give it up there weak-minded
