A federal employee installing any social media app on a work phone is a big deal. With a foreign app it’s probably a bigger deal, but an American developer would still sell the same data to the highest bidder.
Banning tiktok just means China has to pay an American company for the data.
It wasn’t like tiktok has some super secret spy mode, it collects the same as all the others.
Which is why we need real data protection laws regardless of where the home office is.
The 3rd case is more of honest competition
…
Have you looked at domestic automobile manufacturing in the last, I dunno, 3-5 decades?
We don’t make shit anymore, but home offices are based here, so their profit is GDP.
So every American gets shafted and can’t buy the insanely cheap EVs that are better than what’s sold in America.
A cynic would say what also factors into that, is for the past 6 years we’ve had record breaking fossil fuels production. And those giant corporations don’t want cheap EVs, and also make up a large chunk of GDP

Huawei makes phone servers. Its not a social media app. That 5G network is literally the thing that routes phone calls to each other. You’re grossly underestimating the threat at play in this meme.
Whenever a cell phone makes a phone call, it goes to a cell-tower, and inside of a cell-tower is a “phone server” so to speak. I don’t know the full details, but 5G, 4G, (etc. etc.) are the different generations of phone servers available.
That’s every phone call, every text message, every packet, everything that goes to your cell phone goes through that cell-phone tower / 5G network. And for “some reason”, China has dumped the prices of Huawei equipment and highly encouraged the USA to buy their phone equipment and servers. Uhhhhhh… yeah.
If you’re looking at the “Tik Tok” ban whatever, that’s peanuts. Huawei was brought up by the meme. So lets talk Huawei. Dumbass meme doesn’t understand how telephones work. Its a serious national security concern for good reasons.
Have you looked at domestic automobile manufacturing in the last, I dunno, 3-5 decades?
Have you literally heard of the United Auto Workers?
I think you’re bullshitting me. Last I heard, UAW pointed out huge productivity gains for their union and make a shit-ton of cars across hundreds of factories across the USA. Like, what the fuck man, do you even know America?
Bruh…
