    The fact that the company that manages TikTok is insisting on maintaining the power structure that allows for influence by the CCP makes that claim incredibly suspicious.

      Oh no, should we ban Facebook because the US government can subpoena them for information!?!

        First, that’s materially different. Second, yes; I think Facebook giving the government our information without a fight is bad. What, did you think I would suddenly think the dissolution of our privacy was good because it was an American company?

          Oh that’s different than when the Chinese government serves a subpoena?

              So we’re talking about some other official demand for documents? Like an NSA warrant?

                  Oh no. Not a name! Not on the Internet! I am mortally wounded!! God forbid you examine why we don’t have actual data privacy laws in the US. Nope nope nope, just wave that flag and stick your head in the ground.
