What happened to TikTok legally cannot happen to any US-based tech company. The legislation uniquely targets foreign entities.

I thought it was clear they meant other legislation targeting other companies could be passed.
The republicans have not been following the laws since they put Trump into the White House 8 years ago. Why do you think something like legality will stop them?
I'm making the argument in the context of a concern about the TikTok ban. If laws don't matter then the entire conversation is irrelevant.
