I mean I've not even seen a proper argument for hurts your own citizens.

If the US had a problem with tiktok they could've implemented a privacy framework and put everyone on that standard.

Companies like FB cannot do business in China which directly hurts the company/its employees, shareholders, index fund and other fund investors.

China could be using the Tiktok data and doing similar things which Russia and others did with FB data.

What privacy framework? How would that prevent China from accessing Tiktok data?
