This is exactly why I think the TikTok ban is stupid: it will not stop the Chinese government from getting any info they want, it will just make them buy it from Facebook and Google.

I think it's not so much about pulling data though. It's about controlling the narrative and amplify the voices they want us to hear. It's a psyop.

Same rules apply. They've been controlling narrative on platforms like Meta and X by buying ads for as long as those platforms have sold ad space.
