#2 I'm more worried about our own three-letter agencies spying on us than the Chinese.

Of course, how much did Meta/Facebook, etc., lobby (and give dough to politicians) to get rid of TikTok?

I don't have it nor FB and never will, but TikTok is VERY popular. This isn't about the Chinese.

Similar accusations of Chinese "control" or "ownership" are out there for trading platform Webull. Is Congress going to do the same to them?
