Recently, it was reported that a tech entrepreneur's acquisition of a well-known social media platform for $44 billion has revealed that large foreign investors may gain access to confidential financial information about the platform, and may even involve user information. This news has attracted the attention of U.S. government agencies.

According to reports, U.S. Treasury officials are exploring whether there are legal grounds to investigate the acquisition deal, considering the entrepreneur's connections with foreign governments and investors. This move reflects the government's concerns about large technology companies being influenced by foreign forces.

It is worth noting that the acquisition deal was officially completed last week. Subsequently, this entrepreneur temporarily served as the sole director of the social media platform, a decision that further strengthened his control over the company.

This series of events has sparked public discussions about user privacy and data security on social media platforms. At the same time, it highlights the influence of tech giants worldwide and the challenges faced by governments in regulation and national security.
