Do your research. The bipartisan effort to ban a state owned app has merit. I wish that our leaders would be more educated on other efforts of foreign nations to amass US user data.
Frankly, I hope that this leads us to look inward at how our own US incorporated entities amass and exploit our data. I recognize the trend toward improving that line of effort but feel like it can only go so far.
I guess since our congressmen invest a significant sum of money in big tech, while simultaneously receiving millions in lobbyist dollars, they’ll probably continue to ignore a lot of the problems at home.
It seems that the American people vote with payouts in mind, and our elected officials do the same. Unfortunate.
It’s quite painfully transparent seeing the fyp page filled with videos immediately agreeing or cheering whatever the Chinese gov has decided their agenda is this month. And of course you need to go hunting to find the mildest of criticism of Chinese gov policies and absolutely nothing on individual high ranking members of CCP.
