They did write data privacy laws when they banned TikTok. Read HR 815 Division H and Division I of 118th Congress, which is just HR 7520 and 7521 bundled into a larger bill.

But I think it also includes a few other countries, idk if this text is up to date.
I… don’t really care about a foreign government having my data. Like, Id rather no one does, but the US government is the only one with direct impact on my life personally. Who gives a fuck about China. I will literally never go there.
I don’t care if you don’t mind having harm done to you, the entirety of the USA would suffer from continued data collection by the CCP. The entirety of the USA would suffer from more “pig butchering” scams, more industry hacks and subterfuge, more US Military installations being mapped out. That’s all ignoring their impact on politics.
So stop bothering us here and go screw around on RedNote if thats what you think.
