But, what does that actually achieve besides limiting Canada's ability to, for example, seize assets? TikTok, being a digital platform, isn't very dependent on regional presence; it's not like you've gotta head to their offices to post/view content.

If TikTok/ByteDance isn't complying with Canadian laws/standards, Canada no longer has leverage to influence change.

How does this actually 'harm' TikTok and/or protect Canadians?

Yeah but thats what has confused me too about these “bans” is I don’t see the strategy of it. Good points, I got nothing, but open to ideas as I’m highly curious since it’s been also of course the US doing this.
