    Given how easy it is to create shell corporations, how does any of this prevent the CCP from running TikTok through another proxy?

    I.e. is all this posturing just a colossal waste of time?

      I’ve been wondering the same.

      What prevents a few US Citizens from forming a totally new and independent company called BitDance and then ByteDance sells them TikTok for $3.99, and then BitDance hires a company from China to help consult on the algorithms they use.
