Exactly. The CCP doesn't have jurisdiction over me last time I checked. Although that might be a growing concern as China strengthens relationships with other countries.
- movedx 4y agoI'd argue that's not true, though. They don't have legal jurisdiction over you, but they could potentially have digital or social jurisdiction over you and your environment, and that's possibly just as bad. Think manipulation of your local government, throwing elections in favour of pro-CCP candidates, and spreading pro-CCP material out to social media and the people around you becoming sympathetic to their cause.
- dmz73 4y agoThat's the wrong argument because if they infiltrate the local government then they will have access to locally collected data and won't need tiktok. Access to tiktok data gives China surveillance over US that could help in case of future conflicts, just look what Ukraine has done to Russian soldiers using insecure communications.
- parineum 4y agoWhen your future Senators have hours of compromising TikTok video in TikTok servers, you will be under their jurisdiction. China is magnificent at long term thinking.
