If Tiktok was so dangerous for consumers like capitalists claim, wouldn’t the free market adjust to this fact and TikTok naturally phase out?

That’s the theory behind the free market that ridiculous capitalists push. So what gives? Getting cold feet? Starting to realize your ideology is absurd?

Yeah it's almost like instead of providing value to exchange for currency - like in an ideal capitalist model - you can extract currency through extortion and lying.

And the best part is, the second way works much better!
