Welcome to c/news! Please read the Hexbear Code of Conduct and remember... we're all comrades here.
Rules:
-- PLEASE KEEP POST TITLES INFORMATIVE --
-- Overly editorialized titles, particularly if they link to opinion pieces, may get your post removed. --
-- All posts must include a link to their source. Screenshots are fine IF you include the link in the post body. --
-- If you are citing a twitter post as news please include not just the twitter.com in your links but also nitter.net (or another Nitter instance). There is also a Firefox extension that can redirect Twitter links to a Nitter instance: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/libredirect/ or archive them as you would any other reactionary source using e.g. https://archive.today . Twitter screenshots still need to be sourced or they will be removed --
-- Mass tagging comm moderators across multiple posts like a broken markov chain bot will result in a comm ban--
-- Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.--
-- Neglecting to use content warnings or NSFW when dealing with disturbing content will be removed until in compliance. Users who are consecutively reported due to failing to use content warnings or NSFW tags when commenting on or posting disturbing content will result in the user being banned. --
-- Using April 1st as an excuse to post fake headlines, like the resurrection of Kissinger while he is still fortunately dead, will result in the poster being thrown in the gamer gulag and be sentenced to play and beat trashy mobile games like 'Raid: Shadow Legends' in order to be rehabilitated back into general society. --

Plus VPNs and app sideloading exists and isn't that hard to use in 2024. Never underestimate taking away apps from pissed off zoomers. When i was a kid I went through hell and high water to get access to social media and internet against my parents wishes, including buying a satellite dish I put outside my window that picked up my friend's wifi from a block away.
I am not sure specifically (since the US has multiple bans/Patriot Act 2.0 bills all in play) if the current ban bill being talked about is this one as the "news" sites just keep saying the "TikTok Ban Bill" and not directly saying which one. But at least the HR 686 anti "TikTok" bills mentions that people that are caught using banned apps from listed adversary nations (which the PRC is listed by name) and/or bypassing bans to use the services can be both jailed for 20yrs and a possible fine of one million dollars. It also seems to share a lot of similar items as the other "TikTok Ban" bill, HR 1153
lets see them try to enforce that
