I feel like bytedance is doing this on purpose to rule people up, as these kinds of services weren't explicity called out.

It may backfire though. I don't think most Americans know how much is influenced/owned by Chinese companies.

The bill very explicitly calls out ByteDance and any website, desktop application, mobile application, or augmented or immersive technology application owned by them.
