Anonymous, 14 Mar 2024This is not about 'national security' this is abo... moreThey did this to Binance arguing that Binance infringe US laws by soliciting and allowing US citizens to us its platform, but the TRUTH is that only less than 8% of Binance users are from the US and these US clients circumvent Binance's measures to prevent US citizens from using its platform.
Since only 8% of Binance users were from US why US go after Binance? Why?
The answer is BECAUSE IT IS THE USER FINANCIAL TRANSACTIONS DATA that they are really after, US wanted to control Binance so that they have full unrestricted access to user data. This includes USER DATA FROM NON AMERICAN PERSONS AROUND THE GLOBE. This is NOT about US citizens using Binance or trying to protect American users. This is just their excuse to go after GLOBAL CITIZENS private financial transactions.
Sometimes they argue its because terrorists use Binance, but this is also NOT the case. What they really want is to know what you buy, where you send your money, who send you money, this is the FINANCIAL data that they are really after.

Same usa hypocrisy .. only u thik that only chinese do .. they all do
It is always excuse to bring security or spy... Once it will be bought all will be just fine u think ? it will be all same.. So far nothing happened from tik tok.. or it is just same as meta or google or apple or microsoft or amazon..
Zuckerperk had testimony .. but they won't ban him as he bring money to usa not to other country.. USA is jealous tik tok popularity and they dont receive bilions .. but byte dance does.. Don't believe those controversial links same nonsense what they did to huawei..

Where’s the Meta ban? The Alphabet ban? These companies vacuum up user data and sell it to… but that’s okay because Uncle Sam has access to that data 🙄

Reading this comment section, you realise how many kids are actually on gsmarena. The lack of understanding of the basics is somehow puzzeling, most of them probably never worked a day, and lack experience in everything, from life to tech. Yet are they the biggest mouths. At the end it is not about actually knowing what your talkimg about, is good enough to act like you know, and believe it, and look at idiocracy in the makimg on tiktok on "flagship killers" bought by mami. If all this kids had more interest in actually learning and researching, there would have been no tiktok left to talk/ban about. All of them wannabe famous while sitting on their couch.... hilarious this kid
generations, they talk about guvernments brainwashing people, while beeing the most brainwashed of them all. Quite disturbing and ironic.

jazzr, 13 Mar 2024this is pretty much stealing, whats WTO doingThis is not about 'national security' this is about FORCING a foreign company that is making profits to sell to be American company so that all the datas of US citizens and EVERYONE around the GLOBE will be in the United States Goverment hand. This is about mass surveillance that Facebook, Google, Twitter, and all US tech companies were part of. US government wanted to do the same with Tiktok, Binance, and Huawei but they these companies RESISTED to be part of the surveillance.
That was why just last few months they went after Binance, they FORCED Binance CEO and founder to resign and APPOINTED a PUPPET controlled by United States Government to put all the transactions of Binance users under US watch. The same thing was done to Huawei yet Huawei resisted and see how they go after Huawei when it did not want to be part of US government surveillance and control targetting GLOBAL citizens.
It's better for us ALL around the GLOBE to encourage Tiktok to leave US soils and stop its operations in the US, if US government gets Tiktok ALL OUR DATA will be in danger. US will have full access to everyone around the globe. This is their TRUE GOAL, this is not about "protecting American data" like they claimed. American data has never been abused at all by Tiktok or even SHARED with Chinese government. The REAL EVIL is United States NOT CHINA.

No use.. Fans of tiktok will still circumvent the ban.. And data will still be collected.
In fact.. the more ban, the more shady and extreme it gets.
Just like Apple's Jailbreak. Why Jailbreak dies?.. Give customer what they want, and they will move on, no need to ban.

Every other company is a giant greedy megacorp profiting off your personal data and trying to addict you, just like TikTok (albeit not quite as much, but that's because TikTok is a lot better at those parts)
