Because Facebook destabilized our nation in 8 years far more than any claims of modern CCP wrongdoings to the US.
Now imagine what would have happened if Facebook was owned by Russia.
Facebook is a company owned by public shareholders.
ByteDance is an arm of the Chinese Communist Party.
What facebook and ByteDance want at their core are very different things.
For the same reason Grindr was forced to sell to a non-Chinese parent, the risks of putting some apps / information in the hands of strategic competitors is too high. If a domestic company tried to blackmail people with their sexual history, they face domestic legal accountability. China does not.
