What shade of Pantone gray is the US government curating the AppStore?

you need to pay whomever owns pantone a bunch of money to know that kind of thing

this is now easier than ever through adobe cloud offerings! only 12 usd a month!

The shade that comes with shiny black boots happily goosestepping down Constitution Avenue NW.

What does that even mean? You think tiktok will lead to Chinese invasion? What a complete hyperbole, might as well restrict every civil liberty then since they will obviously all help our future Chinese invaders! Maybe I didn't understand your comment though.

I suspect OP was thinking it was the shiny black boots of the US Govt, not the Chinese.

Yes, you have misunderstood.

GP asked what shade of gray goes with US gov running appstore. I responded with a fascist imagery - gray uniforms and black boots. [Those would be certain Americans wearing boots ..]

I agree with GP that taking a totalitarian regime (CPC's China) as a role model is not the right choice for us, at all.

Sorry about that! Completely missed the point. I agree with you fwiw.

np! judging by the reception /g it is possible many misread it as well.
