    Well, people are moving from what they see as an innocent funny video app to a much more obvious chinese controlled app in protest. Basically trying to call out the hypocrisy of the government banning tiktok when all these other apps exist.

    Most people do not realize how much info tiktok gathered from you and which shady state governments it filtered into.

    It’s funny though because the tiktok ban doesn’t target tiktok, it targets any foreign controlled app above a certain number of users. So as soon as red note gains a bunch of users it will be killed as hard as tiktok.

    That’s of course unless both governments don’t enforce the law, like they both have said they aren’t going to do.
