And the rule that Tik Tok is clearly breaking is what? Being Chinese?
I wish this was merely a facetious response as opposed to the literal version of what the rule actually is.

Being indistinguishable from state owned / CCP controlled at a time of fraying diplomatic relationships and heightening military tensions with China.
