atomicpoet,

Montana is banning #TikTok for alleged spying and surveillance.

The problem is that, to enforce it, the ban requires more spying and surveillance than Apple and Google currently allow.

This is a case of the cure being worse than the disease.

@atomicpoet @socialmedianews And what if people have already downloaded TikTok? Will they not be able to get security updates? And TikTok on the web? ISPs are not allowed to block any traffic to Montana, by state law. What a mess!

SocialistStan,

@atomicpoet @socialmedianews They're just jealous cause it's china doing instead of them. People will keep using it anyway.

LNSY,

@atomicpoet @socialmedianews It's a case of a fundamentally corrupt government trying to distract from it's corruption
