US to ban transactions with ByteDance and WeChat in 45 days
The entire western world should treat China exactly the same way China treats them.Western companies have a difficult time operating in China, but Chinese companies have zero problems operating in western countries. It’s completely unfair and if we follow this to conclusion, the future will be one of only Chinese international corporations.Would WeChat or TikTok even exist if the Chinese market were open to existing western chat and social media software?? Unlikely.If China wants their companies to be able to access western markets then they must allow western companies to access their markets.Quite frankly, the entire western world should be banding together to oppose this nonsense from China. We should outright ban any goods or technology that originates in China until China changes its behavior and opens its economy.
