I would imagine its a factor that the Chinese are allowed to use tiktok for spying & censorship on all users but mostly the USG is jealous. Look at what's trending on tiktok: Perfume Beauty & Personal Care/Makeup & Perfume, Face Masks, Men's Tops. The intelligence haul would be staggering.

This hardly requires US ownership and simply being foreign owned might make it harder but hardly outside the coercive force of the US government. Bytedance is not a noble innocent player protecting free speech and could be made to play ball in all sorts of ways that being US owned isn’t a requirement for. The specifics, forced sale to an appropriate US owned group, clearly indicates this is about the money more than anything else. They’re looking at it wanting their slice of the pie

I suppose you could call Tor/Onion Router a State Dept platform since they so heavily funded it, but who uses a state dept app or platform besides the Radio Free/VOA dreck?
