    Good. I only want AMERICAN companies harvesting all my data and programming the population with algorithms! The USA makes the best spyware in the world!

      By displaying a new power to regulate the internet that they have sworn was impossible in the past: punishing ISPs for customers’ breaking of the law.

      ban tiktok to serve US IPs and if they still do, fine them.

      or have providers block tiktok IPs, but then you can’t fine tiktok, which makes the government sad.

      of course there will be ways around, but most people won’t bother and just waste their time differently
