Its kinda morbidly amuzing to ponder what European countries (and others besides the 'quarreling' US/China duo) will do now.

Will they also ban TikTok as a security threat? If not, will they issue a statement contradicting US actions?

If they do, what about US owned platforms that have been known to e.g., interefere with European elections (Facebook / Cambridge Analytica) and (at least) one of the owners openly supports certain type of party across the continent?

What a grotesque theater. How much more hypocricy can the political classes that enabled the wholesale enshittificarion of our digital lives get away with?
