   @Natsura more likely they'll go back to facebook.
   
   though the tiktok ban is still shameful and (probably) unconstitutional

     @realcaseyrollins @Natsura i haven't seen the news slug about them being banned yet. though i'd be curious what obviously moronic justification they use in the ruling

     @icedquinn @Natsura I was thinking they’d go to to #IGReels. It has a lot of users already.

     Of course, #TikTok would like these people to go to #Lemon8.

     @realcaseyrollins @Natsura the only clause that gives them any purview over what a company does is the commerce clause, which itself only gave enumerated purview (which scotus basically handwaved as 'literally anything' despite it literally being a list), and even that clause only applies to interstate commerce. the fed cannot "ban" things. it is not legal. they can only deal with interstate disputes, basically.
     
     they have purview over import and exports because they have it over the border. they could make an argument about foreign business owners, but they would have to make that a generic law or else it violates *other* shit like the equal protection acts and a whole string of laws and rulings that you can't make laws to snipe specific people.

     @icedquinn @Natsura Somehow I forgot about this, there was a law that passed and was signed by #JoeBiden to ban #TikTok, it’s in the hands of #SCOTUS but they might not rule on it before it goes into effect.
