USA next. If we can ban TikTok, we can do Twitter too!

Ugh, TikTok isn't banned in the US...

[–] sxan@midwest.social 3 points 5 months ago (1 children)

No, but they have been trying to ban it.

[–] BeardedBlaze@lemmy.world 2 points 5 months ago

Until they do, your statement doesn't make sense lol

As someone who hates corporate social media (and TikTok especially), I can’t figure out if banning TikTok is a legit security issue or racist. I’d love to see it go, but I can’t seem to form an opinion on the matter despite reading up on it several times.
