The US banned Huawei, is close to banning TP-Link, so there is definitely a fear over Chinese spyware. It’s a very real risk, just like Russian anti virus software (Kaspersky) had been banned recently.
But even if you don’t believe it’s about spyware TikTok should still be banned for economic reasons. China basically blocks all non Chinese socialmedia apps, so why would we accept Chinese social media? The playing field should be equal, banning TikTok makes it more equal.
I don’t really believe Gaza has much to do with it, you can find the same content on YouTube or X or other platforms.

AIPAC and meta contributions completely fly in the face of that.
