And yes it's illiberal but I don't see why liberal democracies should tolerate totalitarian regimes messing with our kids, voting public, monitoring our phones etc etc. The ByteDance CEO is clearly on a leash and can't speak frankly about lack of human rights in certain countries etc, they're not fit to operate like this.
I do appreciate the irony of Facebook et al doing much of the same things and I think that should be addressed too, but at least they're not under control of an antagonistic foreign government.
