They're banning it because they blame tick tok for the pro Palestinian movement. Zuck and Google have been spying on users for decades.

There are a million startups chomping at the bit to create or have their existing app become the TikTok replacement in the event it does get banned.

This is the nature of American Capitalism. A monopolistic entity is broken up for this reason or that thereby making way for competition. According to all those economists, competition is good and breeds innovation.

I don't have a problem with this. Next go for Google, Meta, Apple, and Microsoft too.

Champing at the bit (not "chomping")
