Feel like where national security and freedom of speech meet, the former almost always wins out. That’s certainly not the attitude the founders would take, which makes the scotus ruling kinda weird.
I get the logic. I don’t know if I agree with it or disagree. it’s not like it’s tik tok they’re banning rather it’s the current tik tok product being run by a Chinese state run entity. Like it or not, the West is engaged in a 2nd Cold War with the Eastern bloc lead by China and Russia.

Then perhaps you should try thinking a little deeper about the issue.
They didn't ban it because of the app itself. They were prepared to let it continue, but they wanted it to become an American company to ensure all the user data wasn't going back to China where it's not protected by law like it is in the west.
It's a personal data protection issue.

Wow that’s mental!
For the first time in internet history, the United States government has officially banned a major global social media platform, joining the ranks of authoritarian regimes like Russia and China. On Saturday, TikTok officially went dark. Users who attempt to access the app are now greeted with a message that says “TikTok isn’t available right now.”
