And it’s not like they can’t maintain use of the thing while not being owners. Come on. Like there’s some magic rule if a company’s not owned by China, it can’t be used as a Chinese intelligence source? Come on.
If social media is in cahoots with foreign intelligence, there are better ways to handle it in my opinion.
The fact that China is using disinformation to stop the forced sale of TikTok is pretty telling that they will be negatively impacted by this.
Or that they’re willing to expend energy to get us to think that.
