Never been on Tik-Tok, but this is probably a good move. Restricting access to websites and information is what freedom's all about!

It's the same reason Huawei isn't allowed in U.S. markets... it's an agency of the Chinese government. So the U.S. should allow other countries to use ostensibly private companies to steal the information of U.S. citizens? Protecting citizens is one of the primary functions of the government.

Isn't it?

It sure is, no argument.

I wonder how many other information outlets should be banned for our protection?

The comedy keeps rolling...

Gun control, crony capitalism, threatening to violate state’s rights, talking about delaying the election, and now censorship and restrictions on information.

thats nothing knew for Fakebook, Twitter, and MSM. The censorship and restriction of information has been happening long before now.
If you are using Tik Tok for your critical information, I’m sincerely concerned about someone.

Well, I'd say any that are illegally providing private data to the Chinese government. The concern is that TikTok is accessing private personal data on people's phones they shouldn't have access to, and sharing it with the CCP.

So... yeah. All of those.

As far as I am concerned, if you are using Tik Tok and have the knowledge of what that app can do (and unless you ignore ALL the news then you should know), then it's on you for sharing with the entire freaking world what is on your phone and accounts.
