Agreed do away with all social media, especially tic tok, we don't need fake news stories about celebrities dying. Even get rid of you tube so here is no more ai voiced clickbait videos, bring it back to the dark ages like the Republicans are trying to do by blurring the lines with religious beliefs (BTW I'm an anarchist),I think both political parties are nothing more than old men and women who need to retire and quit fighting like Lil children, as a damn tax payer it sickens me they would rather put the country weak and venerable, fighting over money, greed, and POWER

Look, I don't like TikTok, but that's not why this is happening. It's because of data harvesting by China. It will either be sold or a copy cat app will start that will also harvest the same amount of data. I'm gonna be honest here, I don't care who is harvesting data, it shouldn't be allowed.

Banning TikTok to improve public safety is like banning Panda Express to improve public health.
So glad to see people realizing that Countries don't play by others rules. The Dictatorships like China and Russia can be so dangerous and a lot of people don't understand the underlying implications of what a Country like that can do in the background that most people never realize till it's too late. History and accountability are very important.
There are plenty of other bigger things about China to worry about. How do you enforce it?. In my opinion, social media has been a disaster.

I might be wrong but it's more than one thing. But the two most things I think it is is control and they don't want people to know the truth. TikTok is not a threat in my opinion. Other sites they limit what they want you to know. It's just my opinion but that's what I think some of the reasons are.
I don’t care about the video site smart kids use moderation but I agree China should not own this site it gives them to much power to spread propaganda

I don't use tik Tok, but I feel like if it gets banned, someone is bound to create something very related to it after it gets banned
It’s not just a social networking site it’s a national security risk
The original bill was actually to control radio broadcast as well. Targeting conservative, Christian, Catholic, and other religious radio. Not to include any Islamic radio mind you.
But we won't be able to dance shamelessly in front of our phones for the desperate need of validation from our peers
Controversial !! Thought was "California State University !" 😮😁 Great journalism guys ! 😊👏
YES!! 🙌🙌
Couple things: if you are of voting age, contact all of your elected officials from city council to the White House and let them know that you would appreciate them not putting in little things that aren't germain to the main purpose of the bill. Tik Tok has absolutely nothing to do with foreign aid. Anyone that wants to ban Tik Tok should write separate legislation doing so so that it alone can be voted on according to its merits or lack thereof. Also...if Tik Tok is banned, just use a VPN. If the government is concerned about stuff from China, maybe they should ban the importation of electronics from China. If they can make a.little app that is that nefarious, why do we allow them to send us hardware that could have some really bad stuff in the firmware?

i've become convinced that our politicians don't listen to us. We are not the ones they are beholden to. PAC's who make big contributions to their campaigns, and have the ability to get them primary by backing competitors if they don't behave. And I think most of them are in office to get rich. Did you know our politicians are allowed to use insider information to make investments? The only ones I trust are the progressives who only take small contributions from the public. They are the only ones who are in office to do some good for the country and not special interests. what we need to push for is publicly funded campaigns - that would cut special interests and lobbyists off at the knees

You need to do some research as to why this is supported on a bipartisan basis, as well as by national security agencies, then do some research on the problem China having control over the platform presents to national security. It’s a little (lots) more complicated than you understand.
They should make social media. Not profitable. Meaning no matter how much you put on there or how many followers. You make Zero Money.

intelligent comments by young people in the video . It's encouraging to see they know what's going on and understand the situation. I personally find it suspicious how quickly they moved on this latest legislation. Though I am surprised they gave TikTok a year to sell. It's a strange request I never heard of someone being forced to sell their company.I did hear about the Chinese connection like seven years ago, and everybody just forgot about it so I find it a little suspicious that all of a sudden it's become so urgent and they're not giving the whole story on why they pushed this through bilaterally so quickly

Hello
I’ll be glad when TikTok gets permanently banned from the country. It’s inherently done more harm than good. From decreasing attention spans and short-term memory from it’s short video format to the exacerbation and rise of dangerous challenges and degenerative behavior. It’s even spilled onto KZread and Instagram for competition, but at least there will be one less nuisance on the internet and in larger society.
One less source for news.
