Yes, you have pointed out the subtext that was there all along and pretended like it's some new argument.
It is about the data sharing. The US doesn't like companies sharing data with countries that it views as its geopolitical rivals. Big surprise, am I right?
Seriously. Don't cover your eyes and pretend you can't see why the government treats US companies different than companies that are directly in the hands of adversaries. They might not care if Meta uses it to profit off of us, but they certainly do care if China will use it to achieve an advantage over us, militarily or otherwise.
