You wanna talk Chinese spyware, why are they not outright banning Temu? That's a much better documented case of actually being spyware.

In terms of Tiktok being spyware, they are tracking users in much the same ways that every other big social media company is. Should other nations be worried about Facebook sharing that data with the US govt to produce psyops campaigns against foreign nations?

I'm against any country blocking access to things in the name of "national security" and providing little to no evidence on it. Its been done too many times to trojan horse in other malicious activities that governments want to do.
