    India bans TikTok

    India announced Monday that it was banning TikTok, WeChat, and a slate of other Chinese-owned apps, in what appears to be retaliation over a clash between Chinese and Indian soldiers on the Himalayan border earlier this month, during which at least 20 Indian soldiers were killed. China has not announced any casualties. But the move is largely symbolic—Fortune's Jeremy Kahn writes that Modi's government doesn't want to risk a war with China, especially during a pandemic.

    TBH those apps suck anyway, they're doing their population a service.

    Not sure about WeChat but TikTok should be banned.
    Many young girls are dancing without shame.

    TikTok is funny, girlie ( 24 ) next door uploads some very funny videos.

    Not ran into WeChat yet.

    It would be great if young people made videos on how to study better, or other successful life habits vs dancing, sends wrong message imo.

    Lets not suck everything fun away, just cause you don't like / understand it okay, freedom's remember, speech, expression, being able to voice opinions are important, if not might aswell let China invade us all and run us hard.

    I cannot comprehend the fascination with tik tok. Its now another app that we are actually getting news articles from. Meaning writers are pulling content from tik tok to write about...and People are becoming multi millionaires for posting worthless content.
