Apparently the way TikTok manipulates and influences users is so powerful ByteDance doesn't want to disclose any of that information.
Even if that means they shut down their business completely in the US. Them considering giving up this big of a market is a very scary indication on how sofisticated and powerful their algorithm.
And ByteDance is basically controlled by the CCP.
It's an admission that running the business isn't the point of tiktok. It's an intelligence asset, if the intelligence asset is no longer viable there is no point operating the business.
