You can tell who read the article and who didn't based on whether their comment is about the TikTok ban (which wasn't actually the focus of the article at all).

Anyway, GetGee sounds like an interesting project but it wasn't clear to me how work has actually been accomplished to date. Is it just a proposal at this stage? The website is pretty bad and doesn't provide much in the way of recent updates or information.
