"Chinese officials raised the issue with RedNote’s government relations team earlier this week, warning that the company needs to ensure China-based users can’t see posts from U.S. users."

Great scoop by @theinformation https://www.theinformation.com/arti...app-rednote-alarms-beijings-censors?rc=jpxjtw

Can't Americans use WeChat already? Or has that been banned in the US? I used it over 10 years ago when I worked in NY and was working with some Chinese companies, and thought it was a great app.

@loekalization
I doubt it. People outside China been able to register on WeChat, Kuaishou, Weibo and all those other sites for years using foreign phone numbers. I don't see why this would suddenly change.

🚨 TikTok may shut down in the US this Sunday, impacting 170M users and 5M businesses. Creators could lose up to $50K/month in income. RedNote sees a surge with 500K+ new US users. 📉

📕 Here's why you shouldn't install the REDnote application:

1. REDnote or Xiaohongshu 小红书 directly translates as 'Little Red Book', a reference to former CCP leader Mao Zedong. If you don't know anything about Zedong, we suggest you do some homework.

2. Under China’s Cybersecurity Law, companies are required to store data locally and to provide government access upon request. There's an inherent risk that user data could be misused or accessed without proper oversight or consent.

3. REDnote’s data collection practices extend beyond the usual. The platform collects a wide range of user information, including biometric data such as faceprints. voiceprints, location tracking, browsing history, device identifiers, and user-generated content.

4. Lack of transparency exists around how user data is stored, shared or protected. Users don't know if data is sold to advertisers either for AI training or general access.

5. Because of the opaqueness surrounding biometric identifiers, e.g. face, voice etc, this data could be used to build profiles to conduct targeted advertising as well as behavioural manipulation.

In summary, REDnote is basically a form of spyware wrapped around a social media application. It's objective is to harvest as much personal data about you and others as possible.

Don't say you haven't been warned.

I figured it wouldnt take long before they just separate the user base. Chinese will not be able to see the stuff non-Chinese post.

What about the Data Privacy concerns of the app?

The Americans should know their rights.

A bit too late for that segregation effort?

TikTok had been banned by both US and China gov, and one of them believes they are the country of freedom

The American Meme is undefeated so far.

Don't cross the streams! It would be very, very bad.

No shyt :smile:

37/84

LMAO



38/84

Not surprising. They don't want information from outside reaching their citizens without them being able to censor and control it.



39/84

Both sides ARE AFRAID OF PEOPLE TO PEOPLE EXCHANGE



40/84

By "Chinese officials" what are we talking about here? The Jilin province's Tom Cotton? Or a leader of a national government office?



41/84

IT HAS ONLY BEEN A WEEK



42/84

Supposedly the CCP has already required red note to set up two servers one to service the people of China according to CCP regulations and another one to service the IPs of those outside of China



43/84

This was always the funniest outcome



44/84

Thing that never happens happened again



45/84

Oh no



46/84

The smart thing for China would be not to do that. The interactions are already paying dividend for China



47/84

If the issue was raised “this week” by CCP officials then there’s no long game being played bro @S2Steercos



48/84

Hilarious, honestly

They need to chill out, it's working to their advantage



52/84

China about to have a riot when their sheltered citizens find out how amazing we have it



53/84

Doubt it. Is this just another narrative of WMSM disinformation campaign?



54/84

Ugh, what are countries afraid we'll do if we all talk and joke together? Sad.



55/84

That is independent from Chinese effects. China's efforts are to influence the youth and their mechanism by making people feel good on social media apps through followings and likes can pull people onto the app where they can do this.



56/84

如果小红书让中国人能看到外国的东西,那可能被定罪颠覆国家政权罪,是要杀头的大罪。掩盖真相对中共续命很重要。



57/84

Let’s start the info wars. US should tell them everything about there life and 1989



58/84

From where? The information?



59/84

I’ve used the app. The Chinese ppl can get one shotted by schizo edits. They have no idea of internet degeneracy or online discourse. They live in a false reality and it was fun attempting to shatter that



60/84

China showing their tolerance



61/84

Payback for infecting everybody with TikTok



62/84

Tbh if I were China I wouldn’t want my ppl to have access to half of you MFs either



63/84

Every single user should just message the Chinese ppl and say "there's a billion of you guys, you could overthrow the government whenever you want" and just keep sending that message to them. Of China wants to try to subvert Americans, we can play that game too lol.



64/84

Interesting.. so all the people who claim to be in China.. are really just operatives?

China is still a developing country and is far behind the United States.

One reason is China still doesn't have drinkable tap water.

And 420 million Chinese people don't have running water, flushing toilet and paved road, more than entire of American population.

According to a unified voice of users within Rednote, this report is entirely false.



69/84

All of the of super powers’ governments want their citizens to hate the other side so they can play the world’s largest game of Risk.



70/84

China doesn't want it's woke brainwashing app backfiring onto them.



71/84

They don’t want our woke mind 🦠



72/84

Guess they don't want to infect their children with what they infected ours with.



73/84

I can’t find any truth to this. Is there a link to a Chinese news article to confirm this?

Who could’ve guessed that this would happen?



77/84

Where can Americans and Chinese people communicate online if this gets taken down or blocked? Anyone know? I seriously like talking to normal people from other countries and hate the feeling of fake internet walls keeping us separate regarding communication.



78/84

Yes, it would be terrible if ordinary users in China and the US were able to communicate with each other and exchange views.



79/84

China even bans Google Analytics



80/84


It will probably be banned by the US first so what are your white paymasters so afraid of? 📕

🚨 Breaking: Stupid U.S. Politicians Now Looking at RedNote for "Sell or Ban."

As American “TikTok refugees” flee to China’s RedNote in protest of the looming ban, U.S. politicians are already setting their sights on this new cultural bridge, possibly aiming to extinguish this unexpected flame of cross-cultural exchange.

John Moolenaar @JohnMoolenaar, the Chair of the U.S. House Select Committee on Strategic Competition between the United States and the Communist Party of China, has publicly stated that RedNote could be the next target for forced divestiture under the same “sell or ban” law used against TikTok. Moolenaar, a key proponent of the TikTok legislation, argues that RedNote, being another app fully controlled by China, poses similar national security risks. <- Idiot!

He’s stirring the pot with familiar claims about the dangers of Chinese apps to U.S. national security, suggesting that the decision to target RedNote would be in the hands of President-elect Donald Trump, who has shifted his stance on TikTok during the campaign.

Michael Sobolik @michaelsobolik, from the Hudson Institute, added fuel to the fire by stating that the “sell or ban” legislation gives Congress the power to ban any app controlled by foreign adversaries like China if they have over a million monthly active users in the U.S. “Once that’s established, RedNote naturally becomes a target,” he said.

On January 14, RedNote topped the free app download charts in the U.S. on the Apple App Store, overtaking Lemon 8, another ByteDance app, just a day prior. Over 700,000 new users joined RedNote in just two days, a testament to the American backlash against the looming TikTok ban set for January 19.

CNN pointed out that before this surge, RedNote was relatively unknown outside the Chinese-speaking world. Unlike other Chinese social media apps that offer separate versions for domestic and international markets, RedNote maintains a single, Chinese-language interface, adding to its exotic appeal for Americans looking to protest government overreach.

Stella Kittrell, a 29-year-old content creator from Baltimore, expressed to Reuters that using RedNote feels like “showing the middle finger to the U.S. government” for its intrusive policies on business and privacy.

However, U.S. lawmakers and policy experts are quick to critique RedNote, alleging it poses even greater risks to user privacy and security than TikTok, despite RedNote’s focus on serving the Chinese "diaspora".

Nathan Leamer @NathanLeamerDC, once an FCC policy advisor, dramatically compared RedNote to a fentanyl-laced painkiller, painting a grim picture of its potential dangers. <- What a fukking clown! 🤡

South China Morning Post suggests that RedNote’s popularity might wane due to the lack of an English version or translation features, unlike other Chinese apps. Yet, Ivy Yang, a tech analyst, sees a silver lining, describing this as an unprecedented, organic form of U.S.-China cultural exchange where users are creatively bridging the language and cultural divide. Plus there's now rumours that RedNote will be implementing translation features, which is great.

Meanwhile, Lemon 8, another ByteDance app akin to RedNote, has also seen a surge in downloads, ranking second in the U.S. Apple Store. There’s uncertainty about whether the TikTok ban will extend to Lemon 8, given that the legislation could potentially affect all ByteDance applications.

Why push such an easily debunked lie? Exchanges between Chinese and TikTok refugees have been nonstop for the past few days. China has also extended visa free access to all western countries so people can see China with their own eyes and how they’ve been lied to by you know who.



83/84

sounds like bs. conveniently behind a paywall too

We need some kind of Radio Free Europe for the internet.
