You're assuming those enacting this ban care about being logically consistent.
Oh, not at all. It the same as DeSantis going after Disney or even the unending conservative focus on abortion: they think it wins them the support of their base. I was just responding to the "is it a good idea". It just particularly bugs me that we are so insecure as a nation that we scared of a rival nation's video clip app stealing our credit card information...or whatever exactly we think is going to happen.

On the other hand it would probably be good to have a threatening rival again so we can apply the 'us vs them' mentality that seems to be required among a large segment of the population to something other than culture wars. Have at it, fearmongers.
