I'd love for a precedent to be established, but I have zero confidence that it will actually be used for anything that doesn't come from China.
Given it's very spotty track record, I have very little confidence that the US is actually a country where nobody is above the law. I'd be very pleasantly surprised if this actually goes the other way, but I would not bet on it. The entire discourse so far about TikTok has been about how it's bad because it's foreign media, not about a principled approach to why it and other things like it are bad.
What makes you think it'll turn around, and extend to other social media?
