Banning TikTok does not address the root issue of data privacy since many companies misuse data; Banning TikTok threatens First Amendment rights as it is considered protected speech and sets a dangerous precedent for censorship globally; Banning TikTok would make other big platforms like Meta and Google even more powerful, worsening existing concerns about their dominance in the market; History shows that banning TikTok in India led users to shift to Instagram and YouTube, benefiting these platforms. Therefore, opposing the ban on TikTok is crucial for protecting data privacy, upholding free speech, preventing monopolistic growth of big tech, and avoiding unintended consequences experienced in other countries.
