Makes me remember when UK and France invaded China and forced then to commercialize opium and destroy their country:
"The First Opium War was fought from 1839 to 1842 between China and Britain. It was triggered by the Chinese government's campaign to enforce its prohibition of opium, which included destroying opium stocks owned by British merchants and the British East India Company. The British government responded by sending a naval expedition to force the Chinese government to pay reparations and allow the opium trade.[1] The Second Opium War was waged by Britain and France against China from 1856 to 1860, and consequently resulted in China being forced to legalise opium."
Excuse me, but I have a hard time seeing how is these two events are related?
Hi, UK forced China to get their country destroyed, and no an UK-derived country is complaining that China is destroy them.
So in your analogy then Britain is the now China, and now U.S. is the then China? And TikTok is the opium released by China? Hence TikTok should be banned, if U.S. have the power to do so?
Apart from "should be banned", you got my analogy right.
I mean if they ban it they are being hypocrites
fair, thanks for explaining.
Unless they're implying that Chinese software will fail and bow down to "western software", I'm not seeing a link either.
Social media addiction is not quite the same thing as opium addiction
I don't think 23andme and TikTok are even comparable to the rest of the list.
Yes but TikTok only let the evil Chinese spy on you, while the others only allow good old Uncle Sam to spy on you.
Ah who am I kidding, they'll all hand your data over to any old cunt.
