> Why?
Why ban tiktok? It's a national security issue. And india has the talent, population and resources to do so.
> How many global software giants can you name from Israel, Japan, or South Korea (let alone the entire EU)?
Surely you are smart enough to see the difference between israel, japan or south korea and india? I'm also a big proponent of the EU banning american tech and building up their own tech. The EU built up airbus, why can't they do the same for facebook, microsoft, etc?
> The biggest reason that countries like Israel were able to rapidly develop was because of the soft power of being so integrated in the American tech industry.
What does israel have to do with india? Are you saying india should be a vassal to the US like israel, japan and south korea are? You surely must be joking. India should be a regional power like china, russia and hopefully the EU. It shouldn't be anything like israel, korea or japan. Given its size and history, don't you think india should set its sights a little bit higher?
