Do you also think the same about alcohol, tobacco, drugs and gambling?
3/4 of those are literally allowed in the United States and most of the rest of the world (in fact the US is stricter on drugs and alcohol than a lot of it's peer nations.) And nobody's forcing Smirnoff to sell to AB InBev.
You seem to be missing the point.
This is exactly why I posted my comment: Those things are regulated since they have age restrictions/bans/taxes(tarrifs?). TikTok doesn't have any of those. It's not like you can tax TikTok use like you can tax alcohol use so I don't understand your comparison with Smirnoff.
Yes. See my other reply.
Literally freedumb.
