- perryizgr8 4y agoMany countries do block such apps, or some features within the app. For example, Whatsapp voice calls are blocked in UAE.
- midoridensha 4y agoFacebook is banned in China. Banning TikTok in the US wouldn't be anything new or different from what's already been done in many other countries.

- villgax 4y agoExactly
- midoridensha 4y agoThere's nothing hypocritical about refusing to allow a foreign business to operate in your country. Countries do this all the time. If TikTok wants to open-source their source code and let Americans run it themselves on their own hardware, and the US government prevented that, then you'd have a point. Do you think it's "oppression" if the US government won't allow VW to sell emissions-test-cheating cars in the US?
