I think there are a few that unknowingly provide data to hostile nations. Only one that I'm aware of did so with intent.

Edit: but we're in agreement, all of them should have their pp slapped

so using YouTube and Facebook and Instagram to decry tiktok makes him a hypocrite. which is what I was driving at

"you can only do that if you're American" isn't patriotic

how so?

Sen Jackson's usage of TikTok doesn't necessarily make him a supporter of the platform. (See: people's continued usage of X in spite of its terrible decisions)

I don't mean just using the platforms, I mean aiming legislation at the one foreign company that's doing the exact same thing as all the other companies. acting like we can trust capitalists with our data because they're American but we can't trust anybody else with it because they're not, even though the American capitalists will sell it directly to the same organizations, is pretty weird
