The Chinese-owned group stands to lose a lot if it leaves the US market and is already planning to fight the bill in the courts, arguing it goes against users' free speech rights. Also in this edition, FRANCE 24's Bryan Quinn looks at Tesla's falling revenues and profits amid competition from cheaper rivals.

      The whole purpose of TikTok is defeated without access to US markets, so they will fight to keep access.

      China is a free country for all businesses
provided they follow Chinese laws when operating in the country
.but all American internet companies are required to open back doors for CIA, hence they quit on their free will from Chinese market.

    Only so an American oligarch can buy it. Fix META’s monopoly, you allow them to sell private messaging to companies. Fix the problem in the US first!
