Damn or just live a regular life without an algorithm feeding you outrage and AI voice read-offs. It's easy and a lot better for you mental health.
My god what social media has done to humanity. We got American citizens wanting to put the effort in to sideload an app that brings no significant positives to their life, all for a Chinese Spyware app.

Or you could respect people’s right to free speech and the free market! Banning one app that collects as much data as every other app is hypocritical. If they want to regulate social media and how our data is used, I am fine with that; but to target one app due to it’s ownership being a Chinese company is hypocrisy

It’s more about controlling citizens ability to quickly communicate and share information. It was never about anything but.

The same algorithm used by Facebook, instagram, Reddit, YouTube and twitter? If anything the Chinese spyware is less dangerous to me than the American data collection going on. What is china going to do with my browsing data?
