For me, its a case where I wouldn't have petitioned to have them do it but I'm not going to march to make them stop it either.
But again, while China might have endless other ways to accomplish the task its still beneficial to staunch that flow as much as we can to keep them from having quite as easy access to both our children and manipulating our politics/media.
I don't see it as particularly precedent setting because websites/apps get shut down all the time by the government for far flimsier reasons. This is just the first time its a "mainstream" one instead of some easily dismissed forum for incels/terrorists/coomers/etc. That door was opened long ago and nobody really cared to stop it.
