Google was blocked in China in 2014 for refusing to censor search results. Now search results are censored and must go through their Hong Kong subsiduary. The last part is what the US Government is asking for TikTok to do right?

China already bans and censors loads of apps and websites already so I don't think looking at what they do in this instance is a good idea.
