This probably has broad political support. Not only is their a strong anti-China sentiment but this can be justified by saying they are equaling the playing field because China doesn’t let our apps compete. I also think big tech companies privately would like this especially Facebook and likely others. I personally wouldn’t have a problem with it even in the face of this specific app but I’m against it because it is a very dangerous precedent.
