Isn't TikTok run by a Chinese company? I wasn't aware they had a dog in this race, I'm surprised they care.

I'd actually consider it more likely that people would be banned for talking about Ukraine. China has invested interest through Russia in that war.

Actually, part of the deal that allowed TikTok to stay in the US required their US branch to have some US leadership. The leadership that was picked was mostly former intelligence agency people.
