I'm seeing a lot of comments like this, but I have no idea what your camp is trying to say.

The bill isn't a criticism of TikTok's operation, its a criticism on its ownership and how that ownership + influence creates an exploit that poses a threat to NatSec.

This kind of reactionary framing feels like an attempt to put Facebook and TikTok on a level playing field, but the premise of the bill is about tech ownership and influence by companies of or from a foreign adversary.

Facebook is a US company. What am I missing here?
