TikTok: China could do bad things with our info and spread propaganda!

Meta and X: This is fine.

This whole situation is laughably ridiculous. It’s like throwing a shit fit about a being in the same building with someone who has a cold, while at the same time standing in a room full of people with Ebola, and you are already showing symptoms.

it's not the spread of propaganda that's the problem, it's what propaganda is being spread. They can't control the tiktok algorithm so they can't control the message.
