True, but I don’t think it will matter. China is likely to take an ideological stance, just like the US is. It’s going to hurt the US more than China, especially with how close to the elections the ban will occur.

You can't have it both ways. Would losing the US market seriously hurt TikTok? Yes, or no? >China is likely to take an ideological stance, just like the US is. I don't disagree, but that is orthogonal to your initial claim. >It’s going to hurt the US more than China, especially with how close to the elections the ban will occur. If TikTok is banned in the US, as opposed to being sold to some non-Chinese owner, Americans would just move to Instgram Reels and YouTube Shorts.
