Fun apps are banned in France

In 2019, France approved a digital-services tax despite threats of retaliation by the US, who argued it unfairly targeted American technology giants such as Google and Facebook. And since 2018, France has been vocally opposed to the US Cloud Act, which gives American law-enforcement authorities the power to request data stored by most major cloud providers, even if it is outside the US. Governments and institutions around the world have been banning TikTok from officials’ phones and devices, over the past few months. France, unlike the rest of the West, is viewing Chinese and American technology companies in a similar way. Although, it is not the first instance of technology tension between the US and France. Do you agree that recreational apps are a security threat compared to other apps ?
