With the TikTok ban being upheld by the supreme court for them to sell to a non Chinese based company, could this be applied to a company like riot games (league of legends)? Not only are they owned by tencent but they require their kernel level program on your pc to play their games. With the security issues on privacy and access to your pc, could this upheld ban be used as a precedent for other companies, such as riot? Just curious the impact this would have beyond just the force sale of TikTok.
