I want only want to be influenced by American companies like Google , Meta, Amazon who only have their best interests at heart.

It’s amusing to me that Tik-Tokkers are increasingly incredulous in response to the ban, like, “You can’t ban an app!” You’d be amazed at what a government can ban if it really wants to.

@@nextinstitute7824 Well, I think in terms of government bans in the extreme, certainly all one has to do is look at China’s government and some of their more infamous ones. (Posting a digital image of Winnie the Pooh is outlawed there, for instance.) My point is that governments can and often do ban all sorts of things, including dissent, so it’s not unheard of that they can ban apps as well. Of course, there are things citizens can do to counteract these bans.

Please do better journalism. Please look into Israel's influence on all the US owned social media companies. Please look into the ADL's leaked call saying that this was it was their top priority to ban tiktok because it is opening the young people's eyes to what is really happening in Gaza. So it sounds like you're okay with Israel's influence but no other foreign government?

I've lived in Asia for a long time, now spending more time in Africa. I see a very targeted large-scale fanning of anti-Western sentiments that clearly points to China (and Russia, for that matter). We really need to be more aware of it. That's the task of the state, security in the face of hostile attacks. Be glad that the state is finally protecting you.

@@derrickwar I'm glad I'm not American because if you can't trust your government to protect you in the unstable times to come, it must indeed feel very uncertain. You guys really need to change your political system. It's too corrupt.
