The DEA says Schedule III

If Tik Tok is so dangerous, why the President got one?

I am voting NO on the TikTok ban. Rather than target one company in a rushed and secretive process, Congress should pass comprehensive data privacy protections and do a better job of informing the public of the threats these companies may pose to national security.
