 The so-called TikTok ban is a trojan horse. The President will be given the power to ban WEB SITES, not just Apps. The person breaking the new law is deemed to be the U.S. (or offshore) INTERNET HOSTING SERVICE or App Store, not the “foreign adversary.”

 Critics argue that singling out TikTok for a ban may not effectively address the underlying concerns and could set a precedent for broader restrictions on online platforms. The comparison has been drawn to the ancient Trojan horse, highlighting the potential for unintended consequences and the need for a more comprehensive approach to addressing national security and privacy concerns in the digital age.
