The only problem with that is it would perform logical actions that do not generate immediate short term profits. It might end up implementing 4 day work weeks and remote work, which are proven to increase productivity.
This article from 2024 gives a pretty good rundown as to why using this reasoning to ban Tiktok will set a very bad precedent:
If the govt cared about your data privacy, they would create data collection regulations that they could then use to ban tiktok if/when they violate them.
Disclaimer: I am not saying Tiktok is a great app with zero issues. This is a concern about causing long term problems by using a short term easy solution.
“Too big to fail” = “We cannot give real concequences for bad actions, but we can take a cut after the fact in the form of a weak ass fee.”
Gives a new meaning to a Swiss knife.
Yo, who tf downvoted this?
China is planning for long term survival, USA is planning for short term profits. Yes, China has problems.
