      kiasunkiasi, 08 Aug 2020wow, you seriously believe Trump wrote that himself? come ... moreI don't think you understand. Of course it was written by the whole of thw white house, but it wasn't the prime minister's view, it was Trump's. And a few of those words are his. Of course he wouldn't sit in front of a computer and type that.

        It's a national concern. US intel has found these companies a risk to national security.
        Huawei was a similar risk since the CCP can order these companies to cooperate with them to conduct espionage. Due process was followed since the president actually has the authority to sign that kind of executive order.

          come on, even a kid knows it was written by his team of aides and advisors with carefully selective words
          not just Trump, each and every government's official statements are done that way

              TikTok must go. Lots of countries affected by China's ways are ged up of its ways. TikTok can never be neutral. Sad, but true.

                  Wockie, 08 Aug 2020So, you are saying there was no theft of technology by Chin... moreDon't put words in my mouth, I did not say there was no theft of Technology.
                  The demise was MAINLY due to the mismanagement.

                    This is incredibly sad for me as a non-afrected user, I can't imagine what a reasonable user in NA thinks of this process and involment of his president.

                      A serious problem with Trump who is undermining his own Nov re election with banning series of innovation n technologies without proof n abusing of executive order. Also as a cover up on failure to dealt properly its own covid 19 n black lives matter

                        This is so Reels cam gain motr popularity

                          Zuckerberg soc. platform gets monopoly, Trump gets Fund$ and more votes from his xenophobic base and tiktok is screwed ... business as usual.
