I know some superloyal folks are upset that so many USians are "surrendering their data to RedNote", and are baffled that USians would willingly do this.
I wonder how many superloyal USians have considered that USians are very well aware that they are continuously being spied on in the US by US companies that are happy to hand over everything to US officials at the drop of a hat? There are markets for this behavior. Financial ecosystems that trade USian data to the US government all the time. USians know they are being spied on all the time.
Ok. So. If the superloyal USians want all the other USians to stop talking to RedNote, maybe make rules on data privacy and retention equal to all under the law? I mean, if it is bad for TikTok to allegedly do it, bad enough to ban TikTok to protect ALL USians, then maybe it should also be bad for Meta, MSoft, X, etc to do exactly the same thing, but with more layers.
You know how equality under the law for all is supposed to be a core USian tenet, especially for the superloyal USians? Yeah, all the other TikTok using USians are well aware this ban smells of bullshit and not roses. And they are protesting in kind (another core US tenet).
