The world is composed of shades of grey.

To me it looks like shades of brown
What shade of Pantone gray is the US government curating the AppStore?

What does that even mean? You think tiktok will lead to Chinese invasion? What a complete hyperbole, might as well restrict every civil liberty then since they will obviously all help our future Chinese invaders! Maybe I didn't understand your comment though.

I suspect OP was thinking it was the shiny black boots of the US Govt, not the Chinese.

Yes, you have misunderstood.
GP asked what shade of gray goes with US gov running appstore. I responded with a fascist imagery - gray uniforms and black boots. [Those would be certain Americans wearing boots ..]
I agree with GP that taking a totalitarian regime (CPC's China) as a role model is not the right choice for us, at all.
