> foreign ownership alone isn't a sound reason for a ban

You're right -- but foreign ownership by a repressive regime with undemocratic ideals certainly is. For example, I don't think anyone would be too concerned if a European country was the one that founded & owned TikTok.

But if it would be a US company people in Europe would have the same kind of distrust like they have right now with china.

The US is even working on their great Firewall. It's red apples Vs blue apples at this point.
