TikTok ban a trojan horse; grants power to ban websites, not just apps. Law targets hosting services or app stores, not foreign adversaries.

The so-called TikTok ban is nothing but a trojan horse, granting the President unchecked power to ban websites, not just apps. By targeting internet hosting services and app stores, this law recklessly expands government overreach, shifting the blame onto U.S. or offshore entities instead of addressing alleged foreign adversaries directly. This isn’t merely about TikTok; it’s a blatant move toward censorship and government control, further eroding digital freedom and individual rights.

If you think this isn’t a Trojan horse, designed solely for TikTok and foreign-adversary social media companies, then contemplate why someone found it necessary to secure a very specific exclusion for their internet-based business written into the bill. This raises serious concerns about the true intentions behind this legislation, hinting at a selective and potentially manipulative use of governmental powers.
