“Whale documentary…surfaces.”

"Some of the proposals in the House's report include aggressive measures like barring companies from operating in markets in which they compete. It also includes tamer ideas like increasing the budgets and powers of market regulators and antitrust agencies."

So, that would bar Apple retail?

Agreed…”barring companies from operating in markets in which they compete” doesn’t make sense:

Apple competes to sell phones, so they’re not allowed to sell phones?

Or are you trying to suggest something like they’re not allowed to have a Podcasts app because there are other companies that sell their podcast apps on Apple’s App Store?

Any other “unannounced” sensors we should be aware of?

ByteDance also reportedly has a "new proposal" that's aimed at addressing U.S. government concerns, a person familiar with the matter told Reuters

The "new proposal" is simply wait out the administration change.   The issue will quickly fade and be forgotten.

That's the smart thing for them to do.  A few injunctions should easily get them through the next few months, then we have a sane president again.

Your subtle distaste for the president aside, are you aware of what TikTok has been confirmed - by reverse engineering of their software - to be collecting about users?   Mostly minors?
