I don’t think anyone in this thread thinks it’s good for any government to be spying on everyone. But if we can cut off that flow of data to at least one government, great. Especially since that government is oppressive and authoritarian.
Maybe one day the US government will be cut off from mass surveillance as well.
In terms of reciprocity, the TikTok ban is long overdue. The US government’s most valuable mass surveillance tools – Google, WhatsApp, Instagram, Snapchat, Facebook, etc – aren’t allowed there.
