The US is 'looking at' banning TikTok and other Chinese social media apps

I’m unsure how they can do this without falling afoul of things like the first amendment? Short of having an import ban maybe?<p>But how would that apply to the app stores? They have non-US customers wanting non US sanctioned businesses?<p>Obviously they could terminate individual corps them if they broke criminal laws, but the reality is that almost anything that tiktok’s surveillance has done has been done by the US social networks at this point as well.

Has Apple investigated them for the clipboard thing? Or did that turn out to be a hoax?

This is nothing but anti-chinese hysteria.

Anti-Chinese hysteria plain and simple. After all, it’s not like China has not banned or restricted American social media apps.

This must be done in the interest of national security.
