EILIF: TikTok is like that “friend” that says they’re your buddy, but you have a lot of reasons to doubt they actually have your best interest at heart.
Hate to ask this but can you slim down the links for us? I appreciate the effort…but thats alot to read thru. And something tells me you probably have so was wondering if you could kind of cliff note it for me?..no sarcasm in any of this.
Basically TikTok has been proven to serve the Chinese Communist Party (via influence over what users see and data collection). Additionally, the Atlantic article goes on to explain how the United States has a long history of protecting its citizens from foreign influence campaigns going back to the early radio days (and trying to ban TikTok is not a divergence from the status quo or an attack of free speech, rather the continuing of policies that have largely worked and served the public good).

As opposed to domestic influence campaigns, I suppose.
