> This is not to say that a ban is the only option here. But I am not convinced that other control options are effective, or less of a danger.

We're definitely in agreement here, there are other options and all have their pros and cons.

The major risk I see with the TikTok ban is that it wasn't actually a TikTok ban, it gave the president new powers to unilaterally ban services in certain situations.

As far as TikTok goes the ban may be more effective. At a minimum I wish the law was specific to them though, and I can't support it simply for the new executive powers created.
