By Chinese law, TikTok and it’s Chinese owner Bytedance are required to support, assist and cooperate with Chinese national intelligence demands. The law allows complete control of TikTok data by Chinese spy agencies. TtikTok ought to be a company ‘not controlled’ by China, says democrat Sen. Mark Warner, as the U.S. Senate takes up the U.S. House bill that would force TikTok to divest from ByteDance.

The dangers to Americans, and our kids, of TikTok are clear. But we are also being warned about another monumental disaster at the hands of China coming our way which will be far worse than TikTok. It’s called ‘blockchain’ technology. Right now, we’re on the verge of providing total access to our Social Security numbers, passwords, credit card numbers, bank details, and all of America’s digital information by storing it on blockchain, a newer Chinese cloud-based storage technology.

Chinese President Xi Jinping ordered China to develop the Blockchain Service Network, the Chinese network of networks. It enhances cross-chain smart contracts with minimal cost and technical complexity. Launched in 2019, it has become a significant part of the Chinese Communist Party’s cyber/digital strategy, with far-reaching ramifications beyond technology. Deceitfully the Chinese Communist Party constantly uses new technologies to manipulate Americans, our government and to intentionally infiltrate our nation without firing a shot.

China is heavily invested in using blockchain which poses a serious national security and personal data privacy problem for America. Within 10 years, every American will have their private data stored using China’s blockchain technology. Republican Sen. Tom Cotton says "it’s terrifying to think what China may do with your personal data. But, on the government level, the vulnerabilities are even more of a red line with critical national security information and American military technology at risk."

This is a real threat, readers. As I have said before, forewarned is forearmed. China is not our friend.
