TikTok's servers are still in the USA so the NSA still has the ability to snoop. I assume they're annoyed that after it hits US servers, it's exfilled into china.

I don't think they care about that, I think they care about banning a Chinese app because China is not playing fair with American apps.

Sounds more like it's just all an excuse to ring in this bill that actually has nothing to do with TikTok.
It's a mix of "kids these days", "our devices are brainwashing us" and "scary china" to stop you asking questions about what it's really about.
