The key difference is that American Government agencies don't have access to the information TikTok steals from its users.
Edit: This comment implied the US has easy access to the data from companies like Facebook.
This is naive. America has all the laws they need to get data from private companies, just the same as China
And thanks to Snowden revelations we know for a fact that US companies work directly with US government and share all their user data.
