Banning apps as a consequence sure, but we know that this has everything to do with the second cold war and nothing to do with actual privacy concerns.
Yeah, I know. But again, Tiktok is not only bad for bad privacy (and inb4 the next strawman: no FFS I’m not saying Meta and Twitter are not doing the same shit or that them doing it is fine).
I’m in full agreement that it’s one of the worst offenders in privacy violations. I’m not going to defend the company. I don’t think the app should be banned though, politicians took the easy way out because they don’t understand social media enough to regulate it and saw an opportunity to keep playing the geopolitics game. We need to organize and fight for privacy rights.

Why not? Again, privacy is not the only issue here.
One doesn’t exclude the other.
