There are so many things besides Tiktok owned by Chinese companies that aggregate American customer data. The recently launched Marvel Rivals game (made by NetEase) is one of them. Banning TikTok would be digging a hole in the water.

TikTok has over 120 million users and growing in USA … what other Chinese app or game have over 100 million users in USA. Honest question, I’m curious. I’ve been to China for business several times, so I’m not a fan of them mining consumer data all over the world.

TikTok collects less data than Meta.

That’s not the point; US corporations do not report to the US government the same way that Chinese corporations have to report to the CCP. Just look what CCP did to Jack Ma when he was talking too much. And look how Tim Cook from Apple responded to the FBI when they wanted an iPhone unlock.

I can’t behind legislation that tries to shut down individual companies in the way the TikTok bill does. It’s so targeted while also giving the US government more censorship power.

Ok but your original point was them mining data. When we point out there are those that do a lot worse across the world with US origin, suddenly data mining isn't an issue?
