> "Free speech" is not a good argument here. TikTok isn't a "free speech" platform.

Free speech doesn't protect free speech platforms: free speech protects every speaker, platform, and listener against regulations targeted on the basis of content/viewpoint.

Three branches of government agree that this is not regulation targeted on the basis of content or viewpoint.
