Tictok

The controversy surrounding TicTok is two fold. The first has to do with content and second ownership. China is collecting data from millions of Americans something which is not allowed in China by American companies. China has plans to replace the US as the world's foremost power and is thus more than a competitor. When Chins allows the US to collect data on millions of their citizens then the US might consider a reciprocal arrangement. In the meantime Tictoc should be banned but all social media outlets must have some restrictions only because children can access these sites. If only adults could access social media there would be no need for any restrictions unless something was illegal. The simple answer to free speech is that anything can be said as long as it is not illegal. These things come under liable laws.
