Move against TikTok lays bare Washington's working style: China Daily columnist

BEIJING - On Oct 8, the US administration began the appeals process of a recent federal court ruling suspending the administration's ban on downloads of short-video sharing app TikTok, saying it would provide an opening statement before Oct 16 to which TikTok has to reply by Nov 6, and it would respond to TikTok's reply by Nov 12.

Just like some of its previous moves, the US Commerce Department had a lot of time to impose the ban on the app - on grounds of"national security" - but it issued the order at such a time when TikTok had less than one day to respond. It has been deemed unfair by even many third parties. Because it would give the US companies not only considerable stakes in a proposed joint venture, but also overwhelming power to control the future executive board.That is"Americanisation" of a Chinese company that owns innovative technologies by force, which the Chinese government will not tolerate.

More on this topic This should be a warning to countries that have been silent onlookers to the US' thuggery that their companies could meet the same fate. As the claims of the plaintiffs indicate, the"unbounded and unlimited trade war" the US administration started against China is not only self-harming, but also a blatant abuse of its power.

The US constantly projects itself as the champion of fair competition and market economy, yet its move against TikTok, once again, shows it is a ruthless predator on the constant lookout for prey.
