A less American Internet

America is going to have to reckon with an internet that is becoming less American.

Some U.S. lawmakers on both sides of the partisan divide have said they are worried about TikTok, the app that lets users record and share short skits or dance routines to music. [Bloomberg]

@Bradley Prior - do you think you might have mentioned that this is an opinion piece [by Shira Ovide] instead of presenting it as a news article?

LOL @ the assumption of the American internet being free.

It’s not fun when the hottest thing is from China..what the US fails to understand is that they are only 250-300m.. China+ India alone is 2-3b.. combo with Africa, EU and etc and US is important why?

Sucks to be American when your civilization is slowly being taken over by others who simply outnumber you..

It really shouldn’t.. I’m guess this is sarcasm.

My point was that ironically it does for the political side of things because US is slipping back to where it was pre world wars. If you ask me that’s fine.. but for those that feel the need to dominate well thats huge.
