The problem is, the world does't need meta/google/twtr either. The bill would eventually backfire US internet companies so bad.

Exactly how I expect things to pan out. Some 10-15 years ago the countries with dictatorships had the idea that they need to control the discussions on internet, now it is the US. I expect it to have cascading effect as Twitter, FB, Instagram etc are all foreign companies with known associations with the US government and intelligence and ban those everywhere fir national security reasons.

I don't understand what this has to do with US companies at all. It's about foreign companies.
