TikTok refugees have already noted harsh restrictions on RedNote that have resulted in their content being removed or their accounts being suspended, including for mentioning LGBTQ+ identities or for women, wearing a slightly low-cut top.

    It’s ironic to resist US government censorship

    Censorship is for ideas. Nothing is being censored.

    If your free speech is deathmetal at 5am through a giant 1000W speaker, you’re not being censored.

      What do you mean? There are ideas being expressed on TikTok. The US government is about to prevent Americans from choosing to see those ideas. Even Chinese propaganda is an idea.

      Time, place, and manner restrictions allow bans on making noise at night but aren’t applicable here because no one is exposed to TikTok involuntarily. Time, place, and manner restrictions don’t allow restricting some ideas but not others, and again even Chinese propaganda is an idea.
