China allows foreign apps if they obey the same rules on content and reporting and providing government access that Chinese apps must follow.

The reciprocal stance by the US would be to allow TikTok but subject it to the same rules Facebook and Twitter and YouTube are subject to.

China blocks foreign apps just cause they're foreign and popular, under the guise of whatever law was deliberately designed for this purpose, and now we're doing the similar thing with TikTok.
