You lose freedom.

Would it be OK to also ban Burguers? They're unhealthy and you lose "nothing" by banning them.

A better analogy is banning burgers made by a specific company or country, and specific food is banned all the time by the FDA. Banning TikTok is not the same as banning all services similar to it. You do lose a bit of freedom by not having the choice to use a particular service, but this is much less loss of freedom than your analogy to ban a type of something.
