Every Friday, I present a topic or question for our merry band of thinkers, leaders, and pirates to discuss in an open thread. Here is this week’s conversation starter:
President Biden has reportedly scuttled the sale of TikTok to Oracle and to Walmart, and is considering completely banning the social media company from the United States.
Question: Should TikTok be banned in the US? Why or why not?
