Australia, India have already banned it. UK is probably next too.

How exactly is this against the constitution?

Was banning Huawei unconstitutional too?

Australia has not banned it.

India has banned it through possible dubious legal means wouldn't pass muster in most western countries, which I think ByteDance expects will be lifted sometime in the future, since they haven't gone to court over it, and seemingly engaging in some sort of dialogue with the government over it. India had earlier banned it for sometime over allegations of 'pornography', but that was lifted.

You're going to need a source for Australia banning it.
