While not exactly the very latest, this news is news to me:

https://www.wric.com/news/politics/capitol-connection/virginia-senate-passes-tiktok-ban-on-government-devices-with-tie-breaking-vote/amp/

Along mostly partisan lines, the Republicans relied on the tie breaking vote of republican lieutenant governor Winsome Sears, a woman of color.

Why do democrats want TikTok to remain on government issued devices in Virginia?

The vote here should have been unanimous.[/quote]

The last time Republicans got all xenophobic about China, Michigan ended up with a new factory and a shit ton of jobs. So my guess is that since Democrats are better stewards of Virginia’s economy, their vote against this stupid legislation was intended to send a signal about it being a waste of time and a solution in search of a problem. Because I mean, really, how many employees were keeping TikTok on state-issued devices to begin with? I’m guessing next to none. [/quote]

Considering how influential TikTok is in college application choices, that's really prudent. I guess they'll use it on their own personal devices.[/quote]
