Correct

Well also because China is notorious for it, but of course.

Listening to the hearing, a lot of this is just proves the point that if you don’t know your history, it’s bound to repeat itself

And what is China doing with tiktok that's so dangerous and different than what we're experiencing from our gov and the other social media apps...

stillnaima.bsky.social•51 days ago

That china isn't America and will possibly use the data as a weapon against the US.

copaceticmes.bsky.social•49 days ago

In what kind of ways?

stillnaima.bsky.social•49 days ago

I'm going to respond to the post you deleted. I think you're viewing this as a choice of individual citizens. Our government is the entity taking action, so the question is "what can China do with the data of American citizens that presents a perceived threat to US national security"

And a few simple googles about China's history of data gathering and tech competitions with other countries can shed some light if you don't already know

(I only delete/edited because I realized part of my reply was redundant since I started the thread with a "vs the US".)

The most right answer is, I still don’t want to be giving china all my information and content directly 😒

stillnaima.bsky.social•51 days ago

Which is the correct answer.

If you think Musty and Puckerberg are bad, China is far worse. When I moved there in 2009, Facebook was banned due to demonstrations about treatment of Muslim Uyghurs. If CNN aired anything negative about China, the TV went Black. Compounds exist for propaganda. I hear you, but China is a beast.

And they explained that request for this ban is the same thing and asked for explanation on how this ban is not a way to manipulate the people and suppress content in the exact same way and there was no answer that satisfied anyone but the woman saying it.

I listened and I agree with you. The argument was flawed. I'm only stating my experience. We will also be hearing a lot more from companies pitching VPNs. I used one in China. They still kept tabs on me. VPNs were a courtesy, not a work around.
