I don’t buy this narrative. TikTok is facing a ban because it’s a huge loaded gun in the hand of a foreign adversary that is actively pushing the boundaries on covert cyber warfare. Remember how they forced users to call their reps before they could use the app? Imagine that capability used in tandem with a more traditional attack. And of course there’s the potential for Russian style disinformation campaigns.
Either way, I find out seriously unlikely that it has anything to do with support for Palestine. Support for Palestine is actively growing on all platforms and I seriously doubt anybody has hard evidence that tiktok is pushing that forward.

And that’s when I stopped caring about your opinion. How can they force anything? Anyone can choose not to do so.
Oh, wait. I forgot about that time my RSS client held a gun to my head and forced me to shampoo with pudding.
