politicians are actively talking about banning tiktok. let me know when they do the same for twitter, instagram, reddit, facebook, tinder, youtube, google, amazon, and every other US site that does the exact same snooping that tiktok does. THEN we can say “both are bad”.

I think you've got it backwards. If we can't acknowledge that both are bad before talking about banning them, then what justification do we have for banning them?
