White House Backs Bill to Allow Total TikTok Ban | China In Focus​



#TikTok is feeling the heat. Over half of U.S. states have already banned the app on government devices. But what about a total ban? #Washington seems to be moving in that direction, with the White House saying it's backing a Senate bill that aims to do just that—and it's not confined to TikTok. It would cover foreign-based tech that poses a national security threat. India has banned TikTok since 2020, with a smattering of countries following suit. This latest push comes amid growing concerns about data collection and the health and well-being of children.

Gee....I wonder who proposed a ban on TicTok 5 or 6 years ago?
The same guy who was right about the origins of Covid? The difference is when he proposed banning TikTok it was because he was just an anti-Asian racist. The Democrats are doing it because they care just so darn much about the American public that you can almost feel the love all the way up here.
