        Keep buying those Xiaomi phones India ;)

        Make them the best sellers hahahahha

          wittywaste, 30 Jun 2020You guys know it had to be done. Tiktok needs to STOPA real threat for Facebook, Twitter and WhatsApp in these parts of the world as none of the younger generation uses these social media apps instead go after Chinese ones! This move may save some for USA social media platforms

            People of Bharath really hate to ban any products forget alone China! Too bad China is not accepting maps of its borders with Bharath nor sharing its maps with international borders with Bharath and follow international law, instead they slowly inching into its neighbours territories. What do you expect in retaliation? A war? May be later for sure but Bharath started with banning Chinese Apps!

              You guys know it had to be done.
              Tiktok needs to STOP

                      And next they'll ban Chinese phones from their country.
                      India was too reliant on China until they forgot that they actually had some potential to compete with China (but not phones).

                              Banning apps but not the devices? Makes sense to everyone in India

                                      This is the first step. Next step is to ban all Chinese mobile companies like Xiaomi, Redmi, Poco, Vivo, Oppo, Realme and others. We will have to learn to live with non Chinese companies like Samsung, LG, Nokia, Panasonic and Sony.

                                      Chinese companies present a clear and present danger not only to India but every western democracy.

                                        "RAM cleaner"

                                        I'm sorry but I chuckled when I read this bit.
