The Unho|y Trinity of the US Federal government is considering banning TikTok (somehow), because it is a foreign owned spy tool. If Bytedance sells TikTok to a US corporation, it will not be banned.

Nostr is not foreign owned. So it's ability to let you be profiled, etc is allowed.

It's one wolf "protecting" its sheep from another wolf.

I realize you're using quotes, but let's be totally blatant here. The US Intelligence community wants to be the only game in town.

They buy data about us from every platform possible, and probably pay for some exclusivity too. They also use those platforms to manipulate masses.

Forcing the sale of TikTok to a US Intelligence owned corporation would not only give them more data about us, and deny the CCP Intelligence a lot of data and influence, but also set the precedents of US Federal agencies dictating what apps the citizens use, and using government to coerce companies to hand their business over.

💯 I believe Tik Tok is a strawman to the real prize: ingraining the narrative of cyberspace as a theatre of war, requiring war time suspension of rights to fight foreign adversaries.

First “foreign” then domestic very shortly after
