Nothing to do with democracy as India is barely a democracy. But just basic difference in attitude and culture. India needs shut up and put in the work. We will see if Apple can shift 50% of its iPhone production to India as stated in that article.

India putting in the work be like

People can decide to just stop using it. Whatever happen to freedom of choice?

Likely , these sneaky people will pass some sketchy law prevent isp or brands with working with tiktok which isn't a ban but make tiktok usa impossible to operate. IMO, China should retaliate by doing what has happen to McDonalds in Russia. Take the store, take the supplier, and toss out the Brand/Franchise.

To be honest, China is better off just throwing out all US junk fast food chains, who have done nothing but directly cause a massive amount of obesity related health problems amongst China’s young.

Just wait till the western MSM spin TikTok as an elaborate long-con that forces America to ban it to give China the pretext to ban American junk foods.

They are majority owned by Chinese businesses (more than 50% stake), even in case of war or the US business pulling out.

They can be overtaken and continue to run under a new brand name, or sold to some domestic chain or the likes.

As for fast food and obesity, way to go is probably not to ban the chains.

On related important G20 news, Japanese Finance Minister is ditching an appearance at this summit opting instead to attend the unveiling of the 2023 budget in Japan. He'll be sending a deputy on his behalf and this recent development is not sitting well with India at all.
