This whole thing is retarded. First, tiktac is retarded. Second, attempting to ban an app is retarded, tiktac can just offer the .apk to be directly downloaded from their site. Fuck you apple users.
This is a retarded bill written by retards that are to retarded to understand the basics of the internet and technology.
The zoomer kids in my town figured out how to download and install apk's and use a VPN to get around restrictions on their schools WiFi. If one kid knows how, they will teach the others how to do it.
The previous generation figured out how to get Doom on all the machines in the computer lab, and the generation before that figured out how to get Swashbuckler on the Apple ]['s.
I taught my tech illiterate wife how to download apk's and setup her own VPN app. If you are actually capable with technology, then you would know how easy it is to figure out how to install an apk.
If even 80% of people who would download an app through the store would also download the APK Google wouldn't bother banning it. They know not nearly that many will go through the effort.

Very few will download APKs. Apple or Android.
I am fairly skilled with computers and I have no idea how to.
Yeah with how retarded the average Gen Z kid is, most will just give up without trying.

I'm glad to see this tradition continuing.
Just out of curiosity how would you defined that you are skilled with computers?
Not that easy, but I can write my own scripts, use adb & fastboot which I guess 99% of Tiktok users can't.

All he said was "very few will download apks". He didn't claim that they can't be taught.

For an app to be as popular as TikTok is, it has to be easily available in the regular app stores.
Stop thinking that normies are like you. The masses are stupid and lazy, and TikTok users aren't a specially bright section of the masses.
stopping the chinese from operating in this country is good.
I agree, but I also don't want the government telling me what apps I'm allowed to use.
