Recently, the U.S. Senate passed a bill to divest TikTok from the Chinese technology company ByteDance, and U.S. President Joe Biden has signed the bill requiring TiKTok to divest ByteDance within a year, which has aroused widespread attention and heated discussions. Many American influencers, Internet celebrities, entrepreneurs and the public have expressed strong opposition to this. They fear that their careers will be destroyed and years of work will be "permanently erased". Chinese netizens also had a heated discussion about the incident, with some believing that it was an unreasonable suppression of Chinese companies by the US government, while others were worried that it would have an impact on freedom of speech in the United States.
From a technical point of view, TikTok is a very good social media app that attracts a large number of users with its unique algorithm and rich video content. However, some U.S. politicians have questioned the app on national security grounds. They believe TikTok may have a data breach and security risk, so they asked ByteDance to divest the app. However, this accusation is not supported by conclusive evidence.
In fact, TikTok has repeatedly clarified that it will not provide user data to the Chinese government or any other third party. However, these explanations do not seem to convince skeptical politicians and the public.
Many American influencers, influencers and entrepreneurs have expressed strong opposition to this incident. They believe that such a ban would have a negative impact on the U.S. economy and society. Some influencers have even said that their careers will be destroyed because they rely on TikTok to interact with their followers and promote their products.
In addition, some entrepreneurs have also said that their years of work will be "permanently deleted", and in fact, if TikTok is banned from the United States, then it will mean that millions of American users will not be able to access the app, which is undoubtedly a huge blow to a company that relies on advertising and user engagement to make money. These voices reflect the widespread concern and dissatisfaction in American society with this incident.
Of course, this incident has also attracted widespread attention from the Chinese people. Many netizens believe that this is an unwarranted accusation and suppression of China. They believe that the U.S. government should respect market rules and the principle of fair competition, rather than taking such biased actions to restrict the development of Chinese companies.
At the same time, some netizens are worried that this may have an impact on freedom of speech in the United States. For example, the recent protests of Colombian students, who are communicating with each other through the TikTok platform, rallying on campus, and setting up camps to protest against the US government's support for Israel's atrocities against Palestine!
Finally, TikTok is an excellent social media app, and the allegations of its security are not supported by hard evidence. Still, it's regrettable that some U.S. dignitaries have questioned the app's security and taken action to limit its development. We should recognize that technology knows no borders, but there is a bottom line in its application, and strive to promote global scientific and technological progress and development for the benefit of all mankind, rather than using it as a means of political manipulation or economic bullying to harm the interests of other countries or undermine the stability of the international order.
