Yes it is. Stopping the Communist Chinese from messing with our elections is most certainly a remedy. Funny how you liberals attack Trump for falsely accusing him for using Russia to affect our elections and call it a crime. But, love China for doing it through social media. Biden is compromised because of Hunter and the left are supporting this to turn the country to communism.
Pointing out our government is legislating unconstitutional freedom killing laws does not make one a 'liberal' these days Cougar
Actually, it does. So, if you wear it, live it. Conservatives see liberals from a great distance coming.
Who sponsored this monstrosity?
Kind of like the Patriot Act.
Its bipartisan

You can bet the Republicans will vote to pass this law as they are almost as corrupt as the Democrats and don’t want that fact discussed on the internet.The federal government has been fearmongering over TikTok, an app that spies on you for the Chinese government no more or less than any other social media app.
And now we know why.
It's called the RESTRICT Act, and if it passes, it will be one of the biggest infringements on your rights and privacy in American history.
RESTRICT gives the government authority over every single form of communication, anywhere, and authorizes them to label you, or any other human being on earth, a "national security threat".
It will allow them to collect any communication or transaction data on you and everyone else, without any warrant or oversight, and it bans you from encrypting your data to stop them.
If you violate any section of RESTRICT, you will be labeled a "foreign adversary", even if you're an American citizen living in America.
Orwell's Oceania would be proud with that bit of newspeak.
Once you're labeled, the only way it could be removed is by a resolution from both the House of Representatives and the Senate.
That's right, you can't fight this. You can't ask for due process. You'd have to rely on an act of Congress.
And how could they punish you?
Just about any way they wish, and without any trial or due process.
At the very least, you could suffer a $1 million fine and 20 years in prison, and you would have to surrender every single thing you own.
RESTRICT also gives the government unlimited hiring power, and unlimited funding.
Want to file a FOIA request to see why you were labeled a "foreign adversary"?
Tough.
RESTRICT gives government immunity from FOIA.
I want to put this plainly: RESTRICT, if passed, will remove any semblance of limitation on government's ability to frame you, rob you of everything, and destroy your life.
You will have no privacy, no due process, and no ability to even find out why they did this to you.
Now you know why they've been trying to scare you about foreign dictatorships: to distract you from the domestic dictatorship they're attempting to create.
Contact your Senators and Representative now, and tell them to oppose the Restrict Act.

This topic is covered in this week's, New World Next Week, I will post a copy here, story #2. James and James refer to the Republicans as "Coke," and the Democrats as "Pepsi." lol

Our government is fine with Google collecting American’s data because it can control Google. It’s not fine with TikTok because it doesn’t control it.
