The US should not be censoring harmless stuff like this.

Sure, they can make rules for federal employees and using it on their phones and stuff, but they should not for the average citizen.

I am in favor of big tech being regulated in regards to the data they can collect and transparency about the data they collect and what they do with it.

That is really what would solve the problem. Not banning an app.

That's what's happening now. They are being regulated.

They don't want to follow the regulations, so they're being kicked out. Regulated.

Holy fuck, you people just love to get fascist and authoritarian when you don't like something.
