This implies TikTok would have some incentive to propagandize their users that Google wouldn’t also have. Google does corporate American propaganda, which many Americans have been acclimated to and thus don’t perceive as propaganda.
You could argue a state has a right to propagandize its own citizens to counter foreign adversarial influence. I'm not saying it does but a state should have its populations best interests in mind compared to a foreign adversary.
States don’t have rights, people have rights.
