They know how much control they can assert of the population through controlling social media. They're not about to allow anyone else to use that, if they can help it. Also, it'll dilute their messaging, even if it wasn't as problematic as something like tiktok.
It makes sense the second you stop presuming any good faith.
The problem with tiktok, x, or even red note is that the government ends up with an alternative to their narrative. They can't have any of that.
A good example is Israel/Palestine genocide. They lost the narrative war, people woke up. It's very difficult to put them back to sleep.
A lot easier to just ban the platform. Security is just an excuse/tool to do so.
