Now we understand what the "National Security Threat" was all this time, not that it wasn't painfully obvious from the jump. Every other major social media platform is in bed with the Feds, giving them access to whatever they wish at a moment's notice. The "threat" to the nation isn't foreign influence it's domestic influence. If they can't have backend access to the system to monitor these domestic threats, then the whole system is a threat. If you are using TikTok as a means of ORGANIZING then you are a THREAT to the NATIONAL SECURITY because the Feds can't WATCH YOU LIKE A HAWK.
But but but... MUH FREEZ PEACH!
