TikTok is being singled out for having uniquely bad data practices, which is true, but banning a single app won't solve the larger problem. This 1-off is a distraction from Congress's inability to pass real data protection legislation, and will only serve to benefit Reels and Shorts (not smaller competitiors, nor consumers).

I believe this implies that escalation would be limited and probably wouldn’t involve substantial incursions into either mainland China or the U.S. The scale of consequences of a nuclear exchange with Russia remains much more worrying at the present time.
