Honestly, I just can't muster any sympathy here. A Chinese company is getting manhandled by the US government in the same way China has been treating foreign companies for years. China wouldn't let a company be in the same position if the US government literally had a position on its board of directors, but that is exactly the case with TikTok. Fair is fair.
