I agree. And it shows how important it is to have non-US apps and companies in competition with big US ones. As long as only US app are conceded by legislation, they can pass as libertarian that believe in the free market and want private companies to be as free as possible. But TikTok here forces them to admit this ideology is true only if it is convenient for them.
libertarians = corporate autocracy
