what is there for tiktok to defend against?

the main concerns were with what they did with the data and the data they collected and they already showed they collected less than american companies and did nothing with it that american companies do. the second was their algorithm which the main concern was that it promoted disharmonious sentiment in america to cause trouble but for instance they showed that with the israel palestine thing they had to suppress palestinian content in the algorithm and promote israel content on the platform because people were so anti-israel on tiktok in general that israeli content was being drowned out. so in fact they were doing the opposite of what people claimed.

their primary investors are also based in america and all their data warehouses are based in america

Nothing, it's just them wanting it to be completely American so it's easier to control what is shown.

Ie stop going against Isreali hasbara and powers that be
