However, it does show that such actions are not asymmetric as you seem to indicate.Īs for the tweet, yes - that can easily get you clapped in China. Both moves had some merits, so I'm not saying we shouldn't rigorously check apps for security risks. Furthermore, we did ban financial transactions on WeChat, China's most popular app. That's why the US government nearly banned it outright during the Trump presidency. I've worked with China for the last 6 years and have been there dozens of times.įirst of all, TikTok is developed by ByteDance, a Chinese developer. I'm sorry OP, you have no clue what you are talking about but some of your thoughts are loosely correct. The CCP wants any excuse to do this while pretending to be engaging in free trade. Not only is Diablo Immortal (which was ironically mostly built to target the Chinese audience) banned, but so is Blizzard's partner NetEase, from releasing any game for the next 3 years. It's hardly a surprise that China is no fan of foreign applications on Chinese phones. China doesn't even want its population gaming, period.Ĭonsider that TikTok's entire existence is basically meant to be a piece of software on foreign phones to collect data, inculcate discord, and waste time of foreign populations. Third, it's time and money that their population is wasting, giving to an American company. The CCP is in a position where it needs to act as if it participates in free trade, but it doesn't want foreign, especially American, software like this in its country.įor one, Diablo Immortal is an American app on Chinese phones. I can almost guarantee you that this person was paid or pressured by the CCP to write this post on Weibo. Last updated at 14:00:17 UTC Weekly Help Desk RAGE Loot Thread Trade Thread
