    So no mentions that the lady you have on to talk about banning TikTok is VERY "close friends with Facebook founder and CEO Mark Zuckerberg" (per Business Insider) and her husband was an executive at FB. Wouldn't Facebook be a HUGE winner if TikTok is banned (as this lady believes will happen). Maybe something you should be honest to your audience about???? Do better.

      Even if you want to ignore that, If China wants to sell/offer their social media products in the US, don't blocks theirs. It's called trade reciprocity and what I brought up before (nothing to do with being scared of foreign sources). Try to keep up.
