All these supposed security threats are projection by US. To the point of comedy.

I suspect Tiktok is bending backwards to accomodate Trump, rehosting data in Oracle.

Fellow citizens you should be more afraid Trump monitoring you than CCP. If he gets reelected and you didn't vote for him, that is world Im scared of

I cannot believe people are downvoting you. The NSA and associated gag orders have made a joke of our right to privacy. FISA courts are a dog and pony show, only 12 out of every 34k warrants are denied.
