Biden has signed a TikTok ban into law. Here’s what this really means
(www.independent.co.uk)
I wish we banned Ukraine, Israel, and Taiwan and funded Tiktok creators, am I right? 
the app would be no longer accessible in the app stores in the US
lmao you can literally just download .apk files for shit
lol. lmao even.
I’m actually surprised the ban isn’t harsher.
I wonder if it is because they can try to walk it back with a "it's not that bad guys, see?" or if it is just boomer incompetence not knowing how to actually ban a social media app properly.

I think over the next decade, more countries will move to create their own Great Firewall type architecture to reduce foreign influence and ensure trade protectionism.
What the fuck is going on with the construction of this sign?
Instead of finding a single piece of cardboard the correct size this person looks to have painstakingly attached together about 20 tiny pieces of cardboard, wood and other materials. They didn't even manage to find blank pieces for their sign, there is prior writing on them. Then painted it all with some translucent kind of paint. Where do you even get paint like that?

This remind me of the old Parenti classic "Democracy for the few", particularly the chapter about indolency and inertia of the government, which disappear immediately when the bourgeois dictatorship is even slightly inconvenienced.
