After US threatens ban, what could TikTok’s next move be? | DW News

The US is poised to ban TikTok unless the social media app cuts its ties to China. US lawmakers overwhelmingly voted for a bill which forces the Chinese owner to sell the app to an owner from a country other than China or face a total ban. The US is that the social media service could be used to collect American citizens' personal data and that it poses a threat to national security. China has protested, saying it's unfair to use those arguments to bring down the competitive advantage of other countries.

The US isn’t even trying to outright ban TikTok.

Then every thing still goes well in those countries.😊 There is no fairness or unfairness in this world, it's just a matter of enduring or fighting back. From a business perspective, Tiktok would rather go bankrupt in the United States than be split up by American companies. Because that would mean that Tiktok would be sold at a low price besides its technology and all overseas markets would be stolen by American companies. There are too many examples of the United States completely destroying foreign companies and markets after one or two years of mergers.

Apples and oranges. The U.S. government doesn't own stake in any social media companies and don't really care about the data from international users. American businesses might care to better to sell their products. This is about a hostile foreign government having access to the minds and data of Americans.

@cosplayshop 2 месяца назад

The issue are two ways, it's not just the availability of the company, but also the availability of the users. Every country should be monitoring within their own country, so it's one thing US want to ban a foreign apps like TikTok, which is within their right to do that, it's another thing a foreign user sign up on a local platform. It's like a non-Chinese sign up for Douyin (Chinese version of Tiktok) and then complaint about Douyin monitoring their usage. Well, it's within your right not to use that platform.....

@@cosplayshop You hit the nail on its head. That's not freedom of speech that China was worrying about. What is more concerning for China is undue influence by an external adversary. We have seen social media being used to influence the outcome elections / referendums (like Brexit); or to instigate social unrests or even regime changes (eg Jan 2021 Capitol Hill riot). China obviously does not want a foreign power to interfere with its affairs.
