It’s not about it being “dangerous” except that it’s a social media company whose interests don’t align with Western governments.

Like, I’m sure they do shady things with data, but that’s not just them.

The difference is China has no reason to listen to any other country about what to censor, and is going to censor what they want instead.

Musk and Zuck do shady shit that harms customers, but at the end of the day Western governments can exert control over them.

If another country has to ask China to censor something, China is also going to want some stuff censored by that country.
