The Danger in the Bill to Ban TikTok
Whatever you may think about any TikTok ban, this legislation would do far more than simply protect us from the detriments of a pernicious app. Let’s pray about this and seek God’s will.
From PJ Media. The RESTRICT Act is the very definition of a Trojan horse: innocuous on the outside, lethal on the inside. And it is being wheeled toward the gates, with the help of Republicans in Congress. …

Ostensibly, the RESTRICT Act is designed to protect Americans from TikTok — you know, that nifty piece of Chinese spyware masquerading as a fun way to showcase dance videos, asinine behavior, and other things people can live without. And Congress is interested in protecting the country from bad international actors. That is because it can be done via the RESTRICT Act, which will do far more than keep TikTok off of your phone or tablet. …
The RESTRICT Act goes after anyone whom the powers that be deem a threat. That determination is made by the secretary of commerce. A threat can include people abroad and U.S. citizens:
In General.—The Secretary, in consultation with the relevant executive department and agency heads, is authorized to and shall take action to identify, deter, disrupt, prevent, prohibit, investigate, or otherwise mitigate, including by negotiating, entering into, or imposing, and enforcing any mitigation measure to address any risk arising from any covered transaction by any person, or with respect to any property, subject to the jurisdiction of the United States that the Secretary determines—
(1) poses an undue or unacceptable risk of—
(A) sabotage or subversion of the design, integrity, manufacturing, production, distribution, installation, operation, or maintenance of information and communications technology products and services in the United States;
(B) catastrophic effects on the security or resilience of the critical infrastructure or digital economy of the United States;
(C) interfering in, or altering the result or reported result of a Federal election …
(D) coercive or criminal activities by a foreign adversary that are designed to undermine democratic processes and institutions or steer policy and regulatory decisions in favor of the strategic objectives of a foreign adversary …
(2) otherwise poses an undue or unacceptable risk to the national security of the United States or the safety of United States persons.
The scope of technology that can be monitored, curtailed, or prohibited is lengthy. You should be concerned about all of it but specifically:
- wireless local area networks;
- mobile networks …
- cloud-based or distributed computing and data storage …
- content delivery services
- internet- or network-enabled sensors, webcams, end-point surveillance or monitoring devices, modems and home networking devices …
- software designed or used primarily for connecting with and communicating via the internet …
Suppose you find yourself on the enemies list for something you posted, a thought you expressed, a transaction you made, or a site you visited … You will naturally want details. And you won’t get them. …
(f) No Right Of Access.—
(1) IN GENERAL.—No provision of this Act shall be construed to create a right to obtain access to information in the possession of the Federal Government that was considered in making a determination under this Act …
Nervous yet? You should be. With a stroke of a pen, or more appropriately, a flick of a switch or click of a button, you can be declared a threat and shut down at the discretion of the bureaucracy. …

Father, I praise you for using TikTok for your glory! I praise you for using it to spread revival as clearly demonstrated in the Asbury Revival. Please protect this app and our freedoms. In Jesus’ name, Amen
I declare and I decree that the RESTRICT Act being proposed in our U.S. Congress is null and void, annihilated and destroyed.
I declare and I decree that TikTok belongs to Christ Jesus and His Church and is henceforth being used continuously by Him and His Church to usher in revival all across the United States of America AND the world, and that ALL of its people will be saved and filled with the Baptism in the Holy Spirit!
“… What is impossible with men is possible with God.” (Luke 18:27)
Amen. Father, in the name of Jesus, destroy Satan’s attempts to use this for his glory and show him that you’ve got this! In Jesus’ name, Amen

I don’t have the answer to this situation other than Lord we need your hand of divine intervention and protection.
