As far as I understand it’s the media’s portrayal of the bill that’s wrong, it’s not aimed at TT directly but puts rules in place that TT can’t respect as long as it’s owned by a Chinese company.
Correct me if I’m wrong, that’s what they were saying in Canadian media.

The bill very specifically names TikTok and its owner, Bytedance, in its text.
Sure, but it’s broader than that, any social media platform with ties to enemy countries could be banned.
Sure, I was just pointing out that this particular bill is very squarely aimed at TikTok, that’s not a misrepresentation.
No, that’s totally correct and what most media outlets are saying. It’s the memes that are calling it a ban.
However, my problem is that any platform has this level of influence, not just that it’s under Chinese influence.
