A credible threat to the monopoly status of homegrown social media in the US?
A credible threat to end user’s privacy? Will they ban the other apps that have found to do similar scraping like Facebook or Amazon?
A credible threat to the U.S. Government’s control over social media? Is that constitutional for a limited government?
- pipeline_peak 4y agoA credible threat to US’s privacy from a foreign government.
- joenot443 4y agoA credible threat of increased CCP ability to influence American society would be my guess.
- jimbo9991 4y agoYes, we should destroy those home grown social media threats as well. If I had my way Facebook and YouTube would not exist
- wkat4242 4y agoNot exist is a bit strong but "not exist as we know them" would be something I could get behind. I don't think social media are essentially bad. Just the monetisation model is, and the resulting incentive to constantly increase engagement through algorithms.
- SpeedilyDamage 4y agoA credible threat to the US Government's ability to self govern.
- amrocha 4y agoThe biggest threat to governments ability to self govern in the entire world is the US government, not TikTok or China
- SpeedilyDamage 4y agoSeems like a non sequitur, as it's wholly unrelated to whether or not TikTok could be used to threaten Americans by the Chinese government.
- amrocha 4y agoWell, if you're arguing that "self governing" is a good thing, and TikTok should be banned because of that, then you're also arguing for all of South America to boycott the US
