I disagree. It looks like they're fighting for the rights of US citizens. If you were one of the millions of people who use and like the app, you might feel the same way.

Yes it would. This is an attack on US citizen's rights.

Censoring information is not in any way comparable to the items you list. It's also disingenuous to ignore the motivation behind this suggested ban. It came about from Zionists who are convinced that TikTok is the reason younger genera

But that would violate the free will of all of the people who have no problem with China owning the app that they use. There's endless propaganda and advertising we are subjected to in the west. Second guessing people's free wil

TikTok did no such thing. Those people have free will, which in a democracy would be respected.

We live in a democracy. It's not the job of these government agents to ignore their constituents, it's their job to listen to them. This is demonstrating that TikTok should not be banned.

I'm neither an Elon Musk fan nor a Donald Trump fan (to say the least) and I also side with them. It's censorship driven by fear to ban TikTok.

I don't agree with you and I'm actively boycotting all companies that work with Israel. This is why consumer brands can't support Israel, I'm not alone.

Why would a big tech company be hosting an event with a state committing genocide? That (and working with said regime) is the problem, not people protesting. It's not possible to be a consumer brand and support Israel. The world is too

Did IBM have factories in the war zone though? BDS aside, I would think building any infrastructure in Israel would come with a very high risk of disruption or actual destruction.
