I am no obtuse, you are ignoring reality. Shou Zi Chew testified before Congress and lied through his teeth that they will invest in restructuring to store US users data in the US and insulate it from CCP government, which is impossible without significant US presence. TikTok's current head of operations, Adam Presser is a US national, as well as his predecessor. If Californian cared about kids mental health, they would absolutely go after TikTok.

Do you also think that California should not go after drug trade, because cartels that run it are outside of the US and Californian jurisdiction?
