Isn't that the same argument they made for TikTok though? They are just trying to eliminate competition to prop up companies here.
That part tho
Yes and yes.
I don't think TikTok is really comparable though, unless there are somehow people using it for important government work.
There are outreach campaigns telling you to get vaccines and warning you about recalls, or at least there used to be. Not really comparable, but still important government work that could benefit from TikTok.
