No you see it’s a good thing because we hate TikTok and China so it’s just a nessecary evil /s

TFW the RESTRICT Act would apply harsher sentencing to someone using a VPN to get to tiktok ($250k / 20 years) than the charges for which the ATF initially raided the Branch Davidians (NFA violations, $250k / 10 years).
