I can see the government security concern.
I asked this on another thread, and I’m truly curious.
What is the national security threat to the owners of TikTok having my contacts and other social media information? Can anyone help me understand the national security issue on this?
Is it just because the Chinese will spam my contacts with propaganda? Will they try to get my contacts to buy cheap Chinese stuff they don’t need in the first place? I really think this is super hyperventilated, hair on fire, nothing burger. Help me understand if I’m wrong on this.
OK. So now they have my contacts. What then? Are they gonna spam all of my friends with communist Chinese propaganda? Are they going to try to get me to buy cheap Chinese crap I don’t need in the first place? I still haven’t really gotten a good explanation of what having my information is going to do to national security. Am I missing something?

I have, for a coondoggies age, accepted YOUR exceptions! I have made exception after exception for your exceptions! And now, out of the blue, you decide it’s unacceptable to accept my exceptions! As if YOUR exceptions are superior to mine! Exceptionally unacceptable!!

Given what happened on January 6th there may be a lot of people that think they’ll be treated with kid gloves.
There won’t be anyone, not a single person, that will go under ground and supply them.
It's not red and blue. It's green.
@drewharwell Maybe another issue that warrants consideration is addressing ChatGPT as if it were a person. Your questions, like many others, are framed as though the machine responding is self-aware. It’s not “confused”; you’re anthropomorphizing it.
if only our DOJ was so efficient.
They didn’t include the kids that are turned into pillars of salt after viewing a drag queen.
