The way .ml cries everyday about TikTok being banned you'd think it was an actual real life crises for all of you.
Multiple counties have already banned the app (as well as other ccp government apps) years before the US started trying to. Where was all the out cry then?
can't find any western countries that have it banned for the general public
Afghanistan.
Australia.
Belgium.
Canada.
Denmark.
European Union.
France.
India.
Lativa.
Netherlands.
New Zealand.
Norway.
Pakistan.
Taiwan.
United Kingdom.
All have banned the app either from government employees to a nationwide ban.
"You can't use this at work" and "You can't use this ever" are very different things.
That's correct. Not every country on that list limits the ban to just govt employees.
How many apps has China flat out banned? Movies? The actual Internet?
So what you're saying is that 'murica is just as bad as China
Hardly. Banning one app for security is nowhere near as bad as blocking most of the entire world because you don't want your citizens to see it.
Are you even remotely aware of the level of spying going on in 'murica, by 'murica?
No I live in a magical cave where I'm blind to everything, just like you are.
