Tiktok was banned because it was too free

The ban on TikTok was not due to concerns about China accessing data, but rather because of too much Israel criticism allowed on the platform. The CEO of TikTok is a capitalist with a background from prestigious institutions. The idea of banning TikTok was considered extreme for years until suddenly an overwhelming consensus formed to ban it after being associated with permitting Israel criticism. The tipping point for the ban was the perception that TikTok was allowing too much anti-Israel content, leading to young people turning against Israel. This move raised concerns about limiting free speech and information dissemination in the country.
