    So basiclly they're being attacked because they're a Chinese company right?

    What is TikTok doing that Instagram doesn't?

        And they're not selling the data to the letter agencies (or not giving them a good enough deal)

          Oh, the letter agency already have the data. Tiktok users data store in EU and US after all, it's Douyin is the one that store in China. The problem with this is Facebook are free falling so paid these dumb ass to ban a tiktok, especially it from a Chinese company that they can't fully control.

            I really hope none of these tech psychos are remembered by history. Just a few paragraphs about how the tech barons slowed the inevitable collapse of capitalism with man-made horrors that made some people very rich and then the house of cards fell down.

      It’s a Chinese company that operates within the joke that is American law to profit off Americans’ low attention span and high consumption culture.

      I’m assuming the US is upset because China has laws to protect their citizens and won’t allow the US to do the same to Chinese citizens lol

        I wouldn't feel too bad about this as long as we get a hearing where geriatric senators passionately grill the devs about "waifus"
