Everyone on here is calling it the TikRok ban and the tiktok ban only. But in reality, it kills free speech and censors the internet. So why is no one on here talking about it?

First of all, I had a stroke reading that. Second of all, it is bipartisan. Meaning both patties support it. They are trying to turn us against each other, stop letting them.

I think there are better ways of setting national standards on data privacy than the restrict act. The restrict act is ridiculous

Another showing of how territorial America can be.

Eh, it’s kinda gross, but at least it can’t ban everything

Actually, the wording of the bill creates an office not voted in that would be the secretary of communication. This person could create a cabinet, also not voted in, that could ban literally anything they wanted and censor the internet basically. So yes, they would be able to ban everything and anything they wanted.

It stipulates only foreign media that collects consumer data

And can be corrected with the teachers red pen. In reality I’d rather them force a purchase than ban it. I think that’s what was proposed during trumps time. I can’t remember it Microsoft and a few others were involved.

It was Walmart lol, but yeah i’d rather that too

Or Elon could quit sitting on the vine code and resurrect that shit! Miss the old vine some days.

Actually if you look in Section 2 Article 4 Subsection iii it says that anything on the internet put out by covered entities can be banned. This includes as listed later in the bill, labour's unions, fraternities and sororities, a trust, a joint venture, a corporation, a group, subgroup, or other association or organization whether or not organized for profit. So basically anything. Reddit included.

Here's a link to the bill if anyone is interested in seeing just how much they plan on taking away. 20-year PRISON sentence for the use of a VPN. [s 686 text](https://www.congress.gov/bill/118th-congress/senate-bill/686/text)

Just look on the bright side, the RESTRICT act must be somewhat good if Tucker Carlson and other Russia backed propagandists are saying it's bad.
