Now that tik tok is banned in the USA, I suppose they will not be able to lecture India or others about free speech rights. Their argument is Chinese govt controlling the company and that affects US national security. True that. National security should always trump (even if Trumpy does not like it - he wanted to negotiate about the ban) free speech whether it is in the USA or India. Few years ago when I was in China, there were always warnings in Hotels when I used the internet, that they are REQUIRED to report all our activity to the Govt. Google search hid lots of stuff (it showed different results in expat community or when I used remote desktop).
