I suspect the main reason so many establishment politicians are terrified of it is because of how it suggest content.

I'm not convinced the politicians even have a clue what the app is, let alone how it serves content. To me, it seems like they really just want to keep data out of the hands of the CCP. The bill itself doesn't state that TikTok is banned - only that ByteDance needs to divest it to keep operating it in the US.
