HAHAHAHAHA no. What we'll end up with is a different behemoth or small set of behemoths indistinguishable in their behavior from predecessors. Meet the old boss, same as the old boss. (The longer I live, the more prescient that verse seems.) And in this case, the behemoth will be in a country that is even more willing than the US to exert control over such companies. Not really a great deal for anyone except TikTok's owners.
