What content is being censored? Creators are free to post their videos on other platforms.

Also note that the law doesn’t force TikTok to shut down, it requires divestment. The fact that they choose not to divest says a lot about how they view the platform.

The comment they are replying to suggests taking down all the major social media networks by government force ("Just get rid of all of them").

Arguably, even if you are not prohibiting the content itself, if you take away the means for your content to spread far & wide, that's the same as censorship.

I find this quite disturbing.
