TikTok, DJI, Congress, Biden, and Bans
The U.S. government should not be in the business of shutting down
social media firms on the basis of China-hate. TikTok is no worse (and
in fact seems to be far better) than various social media apps from
U.S.-based firms. There's a lot of be upset with China about, but TikTok
(and drone leader DJI, which also has bipartisan China-hate trying to
ban it) are not where Congress should be getting involved. If Congress
passes such bans and Biden signs them, there will be major court battles
and courts should strike the bans down. -L
