minus-squaredavel [he/him]@lemmy.mllinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up63arrow-down6·8 months agoThis forced sale of TikTok for national security is a farce because they were already forced to move their service to the US on an American-owned hosting provider, and they have already put people with a history of aligning with “American interests” into executive positions, like CEO Shou Zi Chew and vice president Michael Beckerman. I think the US “intelligence community” already has everything it needs to monitor and control TikTok.

I’m sure the US knows precisely what data is and isn’t being sent to China.
