- autoexec 3y agoIt's not just tiktok https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Protecting_Americans_from_Foreign_Adversary_Controlled_Applications_Act https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Protecting_Americans_from_Fore... Does yandex have an app or use cloudflare?
- hot_gril 3y agoHmm, but it gives the US President the ability to decide who is targeted, so one way or another it seems like TikTok is treated specially.
- throw-the-towel 3y agoAccording to that Wiki link, the law does actually mention TikTok by name.
- autoexec 3y agoIt does, but it's not exclusive to it. You can read it here: https://www.congress.gov/bill/118th-congress/house-bill/815/text?itid=lk_inline_enhanced-template#H1DAB5129BC0949429666E66593E18128 https://www.congress.gov/bill/118th-congress/house-bill/815/...
