Good for them for standing their ground and not caving to pressure to sell.

Weird situation all around, as the ban really doesn't mean anything with over 200 days to appeal and no action taken to keep American people from using TikTok in the meantime.

I hate censorship as much as I hate Tiktok. Damn the government for making me side with Tiktok.

I think TikTok is stupid and I have no plans of ever using it... but banning it ?!?!

Slippery slope that would set a terrible precedent.

Unfortunately I believe that's fully intended.
Feels like no accident that was renewed as well.

...this new provision is written so expansively that it potentially reaches any person or company with “access” to “equipment” on which electronic communications travel or are stored, regardless of whether they are a direct provider. This could potentially include landlords, maintenance people, and many others who routinely have access to your communications on the interconnected internet.

That's insane, I knew it was bad but this is on the level of making everyone you see like Agent Smith. Total dystopia.
I'm sure we can count on this being used for the greater good though! 🙄
