U.S. to start blocking TikTok and WeChat downloads SundayBREAKING: US plans to block TikTok and WeChat downloads, Commerce Sec. Ross says, asserting national security and data privacy concerns. ACLU: 'Selectively banning entire platforms like TikTok and WeChat violates the First Amendment and does little to protect our personal data from abuse.' If today Trump can ban Tik Tok for a national security excuse. He can ban Twitter, Facebook or anything he doesn't like. It is not too difficult for China to use Twitter or Facebook to steal American's data.

This entire group is a joke.
