The REDnot is not a "foreign-controlled" app, it's a foreign app, and it does not target the US market. The US citizens chose to use a non-US app. How would US enforce a ban? Send marines to Shanghai and capture CEOs?

REDnote is explicitly "小红书国际版", or "Little Red Book International Version" and is in English in US app stores. It's definitely targeting non-Chinese users.

    It's targeting Chinese users abroad. The entire interface, and all the content, is Chinese only it hasn't been localized for anyone.

      The interface also has English as an option, although it's not well done.

        That's because it's only added recently. It's mainly used by overseas Chinese and mainland Chinese, also, until recently.

Oh I misread your comment (read /inside/ rather than /outside/ for some reason), but obviously the same way they’re going to ban tiktok? Make it illegal for the app stores to host.

... the same way tiktok is being banned? It is going to be removed from the app store
