By giving the President the power to ban websites, not just apps, it opens up a whole new can of worms.
Instead of targeting foreign adversaries directly, the law holds US (or offshore) internet hosting services and app stores responsible for any breaches in security or privacy.
This is a Trojan horse that could lead to censorship and control over what people access online.
Could the government ban this site or any of the fediverse sites if they feel like it with this language?
absolutely
why would an anti-communist gubmint ban a site openly communist? that doesn’t make sense!
