Mark my words, if the Supreme Court finds out about this, they're overturning the Tiktok ban immediately.
it's just a dumb pr stunt in the first place

I've posted the top one before myself but this rings a bit not entirely true as in the whole story.
They're not a Chinese propaganda op and may have US spies but undeniably they had waaaay less censorship of Palestine, Gaza, the genocide, anti-zionism than all of Zuckerworld. Same I hear with Luigi stuff. So they might be gathering data but they're not controlling it as tightly as Zuck-world controls theirs or most western social media.
More importantly I think it's about destroying competition. The US took out Japan, a capitalist vassal with the Plaza accords, they work like the mafia and it's unacceptable to have something they don't fully own and control existing and being successful.
