    The Chinese agencies have access to whatever data they want on you. There is no moratorium on data brokers doing business with China. Even if there were, they would get that data from one of their BRICS partners.

    So they have data from TikTok. Now what? What’s next? What’s the threat they pose with that data to the American people or the students and faculty at this university?

    What is the university protecting it’s network from specifically?

    The CIA has a long history of unlawfully monitoring and retaliating against US Citizens for advocating against US policy, like opposing the war in Vietnam.

    From a historical standpoint, it would appear that citizens of the United States have more to fear from the CIA then they do from the People’s Republic of China.
