So what’s the big deal about WeChat that it gets banned?

I'm assuming everything on WeChat is sent to the Chinese government.

I'm ok with the ban.

I'm ok with it, because as much as I dislike while still using Facebook and their model, at least its American and open to the world.

Any internet that ONLY China can control is a bad one. Tell China they can have TikTok here when Facebook, Google and the rest are available there...

Keep in mind it also makes yet another convenient "news diversion" to take the spotlight off all of Dump's other scandals, grafts and failures. He is a master at making all these go away with a simple tweet.

f**k the Trump administration and their agenda. I won't give them a sliver of political capitol. WeChat, TikTok etcetera can be better dealt with when we get a semblance of the true scope of the problem. We need sober untainted eyeballs not seeking to traitoriously politicize every detail of engagement.
