It's not that it was a security risk.

This isn't about losing Tik Tok. There will be another app, that's how it goes. First it was Vine, then Musicly, then Tik Tok. It's about our freedoms. It's about the fact we get fed the illusion of "freedom of speech".

It'll go to either Musk or Zuckerberg and then it'll be controlled just as much as Facebook and Twitter. It's not that it was a security threat. I mean shit, Facebook/Meta have been sued before for selling off private data. It's that the US government couldn't control the narrative on the app. Couldn't stop us from talking to each other and potentially organizing, cause unlike Facebook and Twitter, Tik Tok wouldn't sell you out to the cops because you were organizing a protest. It's because more people used tik tok than anything else, which takes money away from politicians who own stocks and shares in said companies. It wasn't a security threat. If it was a security threat, China wouldn't be allowed to fucking OWN 2 MILLION ACRES OF FARMLAND AND 10 MEAT PLANTS. It's not a security risk. What's a security risk is the fact that they're overstepping they're boundaries. "For the people, by the people" is no more. And everyone is too stupid to realize it. Just like the flags at half staff situation. Idk about everyone, but Iowas governor along with multiple other states are trying to force flags to be raised for orange idiots election. It's hasn't been 30 days since President Carter passed, and the US Flag code, which is part of a US STATUE, that flags are to he at half staff for 30 days in respect of the president. If they're ignoring that, what else are they going to try to pull or ignore?
