President Trump on Thursday invoked his emergency economic powers to impose broad sanctions against TikTok, a move that steps up pressure on the Chinese-owned app to sell its U.S. assets to an American company. --- My name is not a typo ... Copied to Clipboard!

Only took him 4 years to do something right I know you mean that, half tongue and cheek. But you know he's doing it because he has some weird hate boner for China and Asians. Personally I think it's rooted in to when Japan was seen as buying up America in the 80's...and a lot of time in NYC, which is where he was then. He probably thinks China is Japan at this point. --- "Whatever the reason you're on Mars, I'm glad you're there, and I wish I was with you." ~Carl Sagan. Currently playing: Flight Simulator X.~PC ...

I was reading about how TikTok sends way more personal data than the app actually requires, intentionally obfuscates the API to make it harder to track, uses unsecured HTTP, and leaks users primary and secondary email addresses through REST API calls. This is probably a good thing.

It is substantially worse then most other apps like that in terms of spyware. Granted, Trump is doing this because of a vendetta, but I hope his using spyware as justification puts some fear into app developers when it comes to putting spyware into their apps. Spyware is a problem and people shouldn't be cool with it. The argument of "other apps do it so TikTok should be able to too" is dumb. It's not that TikTok should get away with it too, it's that *all* of those apps should be banned. ... Copied to Clipboard!

On Thursday, the Senate unanimously passed a bill to ban TikTok on government-issued devices, as the view that the app could pose a national security threat to the U.S. gains new bipartisan support in Washington.

I love how everyone ignores it was actually Apple's fault due to a vulnerability on their side. TikTok is the only app we know was using that vulnerability but there probably are/were more of them that did it.
