@atomicpoet Saw a post from a serious techie about not banning platforms outright, the old "If you don't want the Chinese govt knowing what you're doing, don't download Tik Tok. It's an individual choice. US platforms are just as bad."

Well, let's bury our heads in the sand and pretend the Chinese govt is a good-faith actor in ANY regard to sm. Phone cameras can be turned on at will and monitored. If I'm in the same room with the individual who has TT, they have access to me too.
