The mentality that because Meta, Google and X probably are stealing my data, then making sure my data is stolen by a dictatorship is peak nihilism.

“Only WE can steal your data, anyone else doing it is downright EVIL”

So, what is your opinion....should the US govt regulate Meta, Google and X to ensure user data is secure?
If so, you're a hypocrite standing tall for TikTok or this new Little Red Book platform you spiting yourself with.
"Only WE like our data stolen to show them who's boss"

i bet theyll try to ban this one too

TikTok is banned because of ownership interests of the Chinese government & access to our data, so a user should migrate to RedNote, another Chinese site with the same problem? Doesn't sound like a rational thing to do. Won't RedNote get banned, eventually, also?

That's not really why TiKtoK was banned.

That’s is exactly why both parties chose to ban the app!!!

They were never able to PROVE that our data was being used maliciously. They just mentioned the potential of it. Zuck paid LOTS of money to lobby against it.

This is the culprit who started this mess 4years ago! Trump and the Supreme Court’s stated National Security reasons, since TikToks parent company is located in China!
