I think his point is: the same measures should be taken for domestic entities. It's bad no matter who does it.

Yeah, but this article is about TikTok. Whataboutisms only deflect from the topic.

I don't live in China so I don't really give a fuck if they're tracking me. Google or Facebook are here and report to the American government, where I actually live.
