That's where I'm at. If in an alternate universe Congress did something like banning the distribution of harvested data, even just to foreign entities, and TikTok then refused to comply, then I'd be fully in support with them getting banned for it.
Here in the real world though, Congress apparently doesn't have the balls to pass blanket privacy rights like that, because you see, that'd catch some of the wrong fish. I think it says a lot about the state of modern social media that all they were willing to go after TikTok for was something as nebulous as "national security risk".
