Lots of rumors that Facebook's investment was mostly to spur the government to ban TikTok.

I'd also wager that Facebook has been lobbying the US government to ban TikTok. This is the first big threat they've had that they haven't been able to buy or crush

Yes. AGMR dues was exactly that, which had put Vodafone-Idea to the being bankrupt.
