You have principles and you can abide by them. > All major American tech companies are banished from China Nope. They aren't banishing anyone. They simply have laws that make it difficult for them to work in China. What law was TikTok not following that they are being forced to sell to a US company? Its essentially extortion. If the US makes a law, i.e. all foreign-owned companies must store data on US soil or whatever else the issue with TikTok is, then that would actually fit. Rather the administration is forcing Bytedance to sell to a US company i.e. give it to us or we will kill it.
