Typical pathetic response from a silly political activist. There are tons of american companies operating in china. I listed few of the biggest. Google used to operate in china. But when china tighten their laws, google chose not to follow them and left. Probably because google, like facebook, are state sponsored propaganda outfits. Unlike tiktok...
Would you have been more satisfied if the US government forced a backdoor to TikTok? That's why Google pulled out of China.
The US is doing the opposite, it's removing TikTok because they probably spy / psyop for the CCP.
One country (China) was trying to force foreign companies to spy / psyop.
One country (US) is making sure a foreign adversary doesn't use it to spy / psyop.

What a dope. Imagine being dumb enough to believe google pulled out to protect chinese people's privacy.
Google pulled out because the chinese government wanted to monitor it to make sure google wasn't acting as a state actor pushing propaganda to destabilize nations. Turns out the chinese were right and google was indeed a state actor. Their dirty little fingers were all over the color revolutions.

But that's google's business model. Do you have two brain cells to rub together? Why would the chinese force google to do what it already was doing in china and everywhere in the world? And still does today?

That's what china was doing. Dummy. Literally, china created laws to stop google/facebook/etc from running psyops in china and that's why they chose to leave china.
You must be one of the morons that actually swallowed google's motto "Don't be evil" hook line and sinker.
How stupid do you have to be to think google left china because the chinese government forced them to spy on the chinese. When spying is google's bread and butter.
Really skipped over expanding on the CCP laws that Google chose not follow, didn't ya?
