>The US Banning TikTok Would Play Right Into China’s Hands, And Destroy Decades Of US Work On Promoting An Open Internet
Lol no, there's nothing open about tiktok, it's entirely proprietary and top nightmare rectangle.
@miscbrains@mangeurdenuage@mrsaturday of course but it's a dishonest argument, the open internet already doesn't exist because china does this to us already
@miscbrains@mangeurdenuage@mrsaturday unpopular opinion: free and open puts you at a massive tactical disadvantage when you have an unscrupulous, competent and non-open global competitor that will use that against you while not subjecting themselves to the same weakness.
@sun@miscbrains@mangeurdenuage@mrsaturday it would help if they spent time fortifying the populace instead of the whole "our job is complete when everything americans believe is false" CIA shit
@sun@mangeurdenuage@miscbrains@mrsaturday there were old discussions about how we could basically fortify cybersecurity to keep everyone and spooks out. or ruin the security so spooks can snoop. they chose the latter, and then play stupid when it causes issues. they could have done the first.
same with psychic defense. teach classical trivium, instead of "math is racist"
