You shouldn't care what China or Russia say. The first amendment works only for American citizens, not for foreign subversion agents.

Foreign nationals have at least some First Amendment rights in the US. Foreign agents or countries may have restrictions on some other grounds.

TikTok tends toward foreign country / agent as I read it.
