Will US abolish all other Chinese digital presence including Alibaba etc?

• SpicyLemonZest 6y ago
  The US government almost certainly doesn't have the power to do that. (It's not tremendously clear how they'd even be able to ban Tiktok; they'd have a hard time getting Apple and Google to take it off the app store and an impossible time convincing Internet providers to block it.)

    Since the beginning of the "tensions" with China people keep pushing the same key: "the government cannot do this, they don't have the authority, the constitution blah". And every time they have been proven wrong, as Trump has established travel bans, restricted visas, put people in concentration camps, imposed tariffs, and who knows what they will do next. People that keep pretending that freedoms are not eroding are just exercising wishful thinking.

      >Trump has ... put people in concentration camps Am I missing something here? What are you referencing? I'm not sure I understand.

        ICE detention camps, presumably.
