Also wonder whether the law names TikTok in particular or just some criteria that matches it. If it's the latter, are other companies also on the clock?


It's not just tiktok https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Protecting_Americans_from_Fore...

Does yandex have an app or use cloudflare?


According to that Wiki link, the law does actually mention TikTok by name.


It does, but it's not exclusive to it. You can read it here: https://www.congress.gov/bill/118th-congress/house-bill/815/...


Hmm, but it gives the US President the ability to decide who is targeted, so one way or another it seems like TikTok is treated specially.
