The US government is controlled by the same interests and lobbbyists that control the government, so it's similar although not the same thing. Just because their interests align at this moment because the billionaires don't want competition and the government has a hard-on for Israel doesn't mean their right.

And for the record, I don't even use Tik Tok, and I personally think social media and shortform content is bad for young brains and probably causing a lot of ADHD and impairing my ability to read. But I find this whole bill very fake and performative and probably done for the wrong reasons. It's weird that we finally got an international perspective unfiltered by US media companies that bow to AIPAC and of course it's getting banned.
