I think all the arguments "For" TikTok are smoke and mirrors since it boils down to it has a ton of information on its user, TikTok is Mega Big Chinese corp now, and CCP has full control over any corp in China, and have shown they will use that power (see Jack Ma) to do whatever they like. TikTok is the biggest honeypot and information dragnet by a foreign nation in our (USA) history by a huge margin. That's the only "against" that I need to say we need to shut down TikTok in America. There are currently a ton of other options people can move to.
- skinnymuch 4y agoI’m not afraid of the CCP. I will possibly never go to China. I’d shit my pants if the NSA, CIA, or DIA were interested in me and gathering all data on me. I can’t imagine China or CCP being a danger to 95%+ of westerners. While the vast majority should be weary to some degree of their own security and defense apparatuses having too much data on them.

That's the only "against" that I need to say we need to shut down TikTok in America. As you can imagine, people in other countries are observing this development with great interest.
