- bioemerl 3y agoThey might be trying, but the end result will be a petty destruction of progress. "In order to make any change you must fix my much larger and harder to solve issue" will ensure that nothing ever gets done. In the face of just how serious this risk is, this sort of stance is self destructive and nearly malicious.
- nabakin 3y agoWhy can't you believe both are issues and be in support of the resolution of both?
- pessimizer 3y agoThat's also a copout that liberals spent a few years repeating in Spanish for some reason. TikTok is not at all a problem. The fact that all of your data is already on sale, cheaply, publicly, and legally, is.
- nabakin 3y agoYou say it's a copout and then you don't explain why. I can believe US data through TikTok is at risk due to CCP origins and I can believe our data is on sale in general. I can also believe that both are an issue.
- hmm37 3y agoThe way you would solve both issues is simply have data protection laws that affect all social media companies, rather than singling/discriminating against one company because it's "foreign", and moreover "Chinese".
- nabakin 3y agoFor sure, we should just have a general data protection law which covers both issues

- rat9988 3y agoGiven the serious risk, we should fix the bigger loophole where foreign or national bodies can use our data. "In the face of just how serious this risk is, this sort of stance is self destructive and nearly malicious." Unfortunately, such narrow views will not help us go anywhere. This is the best way to kill any thought process.
- bioemerl 3y agoI agree, we should fix both. Your objections here won't fix both though. Instead, neither will be fixed.
