In an exclusive interview with NBC News' Lester Holt, FBI Director Christopher Wray says he's concerned about TikTok because the platform's parent company is beholden to the Chinese government. Wray also discussed international and domestic threats, and protests stemming from the Israel-Hamas conflict.

It’s not that most Americans don’t care about a potential threat. We do. But, if our government is going to decimate millions of American businesses and marketing outlets for authors and artists, then we deserve definitive proof. The director seems very convinced but, should we just take his word for it? This has not always gone well in the past. I don’t like it but data collection and algorithms are standard practice in social media apps. When you say the parent company is beholden to the Chinese government, there begins the speculation and you say that because of the ownership chain they ‘could potentially’ or ‘might be’ and therefore ‘must be’ giving data to the Chinese government or using it to manipulate Americans. All this without offering us tangible proof of such activity. From our perspective, you are recommending action based on speculation and have congress so rattled they are sliding this right through. We want to believe and trust you but at a time when we are all struggling to find a way to make a living in an ever changing world, losing access to this app will be a gut punch to many of us. If this is real, show us.

You're too smart to play that game of show us. You know that if the Chinese gov. tells bytedance to tweak their algorithm to push an agenda for the chinese gov. they will do it. Unless you have been living under a rock you know that chinese businessmen routinely disappear when they don't do the government's bidding. Only to reappear months later with a new improved attitude. As far as killing millions of businesses all tictok has to do is sell and it won't be banned. Don't be so self serving and look at the big picture. The Chinese gov. is behind blatant hacking of US businesses and constant corporation espionage and everyone knows it so don't pretend like they won't use tiktok against us. You aren't that naive.

We have approximately 3.7 million teachers in the United States. If we armed 10% that would be 370,000 gun safes that would need to be bought and installed, they would need to be decent safes. So let's say 2000 installed . Then the Teacher would need a decent gun, training , ammunition to practice with , money for permits , maintaine on the gun , the teachers time... nights at the gun range . How does that fit into the Budget . How does that fit into a teachers pay . How about Vest and riot gear, I mean if cops get Riot gear our teachers need it too right ? How about insurance 🤔 How about the fact the even high train officer , miss 6 out of 10 Shots fired on average in live situations. Thats 6 out of 10 shots missed in a school full of children at best , fired by teachers that may or may not have the best training. Additionally, the mental and emotional toll on teachers who are now responsible for carrying a weapon in the classroom must be considered. It is crucial to weigh the financial and psychological implications before deciding whether arming teachers is a wise and feasible solution for school safety.

Thats a myth. China did not ban FB or Google. There was a set of Chinese laws and FB / Google refused to comply so they left China. Microsoft / Bing complied and stayed on. On the other hand, Tik Tok compiled with all US laws and regulations, but the US law makers created new pathways to ban them. Note the differences (something Western media will never talk about).

That is the right thing to do even when others disagree or dont understand or dont care. I back the fbi effort to ban tik tok. They can find other ways to make a living. Trust me, they already are. You guys should see all the ways they come up with to make a dollar out here. I think were at the end of our digital era anyway. And for good reason. My 2 cent.
