Incredible that the xenophobic banning of #TikTok has caused a massive migration to #Lemon8, which lets you browse TikTok content with a different UX, and #LittleRedBook, which is yet another Chinese-owned company (TikTok is owned by ByteDance in China, although the company is nominally based in the Cayman Islands).
Maybe write laws that prohibit specific behaviors instead of banning specific companies. Or will that impinge too much on the profit margins of US companies?
