If I’m not mistaken, iPhone (which 1/2 of the USA uses) is designed in California but made in China… wouldn’t that be a risk due to them possibly placing bugs in the phones, putting us at risk? 🤔

So if they ban this app how will they be able to get it off of my phone? That's what I'm not understanding here since there is no news about them getting a confirmation from the Google play store😭

I’m ready for TikTok without US content. After all there’s so many other cultures that we missed out because Tiktok is too US-centric. Time to let them be great to themselves while the world moves on!

Do we know how many parent companies that aren’t based here? A lot. In fact some that use your cell phones to enter time for work etc. ie staffing agencies. Plenty others I’m sure.

In that case they should look at x, Facebook, google, any email companies, Instagram, Walmart, Amazon etc. they all collect data, who’s to say that data is safe? Just because they are “owned” by

My FB Reels and YT Shorts haven’t shown me a SINGLE piece of world news or anything actually. Just a bunch of ads and product ads. TIKtok is best news source nowadays. Explains why they want to ban it

So here’s the REAL question, what are they hiding and trying to pull our focus from? The only logical reason that they are making taking out an app into big news is that they are trying to cover 1/2

Why dont they just make tiktok it's own entity and turn the rights of it over to the American company that already runs it????? Because if IG buys it or Elon buys it, I'm not staying on Tiktok.

I have identity monitoring on all my stuff & I’ve had my data stolen from fb, X, Amazon, PayPal, Venmo, etc… but never TikTok. If they really have a concern about our data safety, fb should be banned.

Well they should do this for all platforms!!!!! They don’t! So there’s that! Also politicians, as soon as this started all of a sudden was buying into those said other platforms, it’s suspicious at all!!

Aren’t we being monitored by the government already by using the cell phones in the first place? That’s just weak argument from the government. All I know is that knowledge is power. INFORMATION=POWER

British "Comedian" John Oliver had a full episode explaining this (obviously with some jokes as he is a comedian).It's the last episode of S11 of Last Week Tonight w/ John Oliver (HBO Max).

if this data is so dangerous then why allow Facebook or Google to sell it to whoever they please. there's definitely stuff on tiktok where it's a surveillance app but now it's a problem because they're with China...ummm this was said 4 yrs ago and now we ban it. The whole national security argument is just a phrase because that phrase is being intentionally weaponized against US citizens.

Why do politicians allowed to invest in Meta which Meta stock is going through the roof if this band goes in the place isn’t that a conflict of interest? I question the integrity of all this.

The govt’s overview isn’t a strong arguement unfortunately. It sounds like they’re trying to control 170 million user’s freedom to chose the free speech they’re engaging in and that’s not good.
