I wonder if this would lead to some sort of cat-and-mouse game where ByteDance keep making the app available under different names and encouraging Android users to side-load it.
Presumably there would have to be some sort of judicial process before each new version of the app could be added to the blacklist, with evidence proving that it really was created or controlled by ByteDance, or there would be First Amendment implications.
