   This is some great detail on what a #TikTok ban means, and this would set a major dangerous precedent that the US government can basically ban any non-US service it doesn't like and then more. This also applies to the #Fediverse at large. https://mastodon.social/@mcc/112327478848274607

     @joeo10 I wrote back in June about the stupidity of this from a technical and political perspective as it related to Montana. Many of the points apply here. https://robertvanwey.substack.com/p/weaponizing-xenophobia

     I did tell you that this is just the beginning right?

     #DJI could very well be the next non-US company/service to be banned and as the only available option for consumer drones, it's going to get ugly... https://www.theverge.com/2024/4/26/24141369/dji-ban-china-countering-ccp-drones-act
