I was just lamenting this earlier today. Though admittedly I do not like or trust TikTok as I believe it to be a CCP captured entity, this ban is wrong. People should have the autonomy and independence to decide how and when they choose to share their information. This should not be top-down driven by government because they decide on our behalf that "this is in your best interest". If we ban platforms, we become no better than the CCP, who have already banned social platforms, VPNs, Bitcoin mining, etc.
