This sets the precedent to do the exact same thing to domestic companies if the government feels that the public is being "manipulated," or data being used, in a way it doesn't like.
If the rationale was solely tit for tat, "China does this to our tech companies, so we're simply doing the same," that would actually be significantly more palatable.

That you've got your panties in a twist over that suggests you don't know the first thing about how international trade with hostile nations works, has worked, and will continue to work. I've got a word you should look up. It will open your mind in new ways. It's called "sovereignty" and you would benefit from learning what it means.
