I get the freedom of speech angle, but I've always been a supporter of the American TikTok ban under the premise of reciprocity.

#China prohibits all American social media apps, including all Nostr protocols. This double standard is actually a very common approach taken by China for the expressed purpose of gaining a strategic advantage. A push back on this approach is long overdue.

This actually should have been the primary, if not only, rationale for the TikTok ban in the first place. The whole nonsense of "protecting democracy" and "guarding against foreign influence" is readily viewed as comical if not hypocritical.
