That's a false projection. For example, products from Korea and Japan are very popular in the US. App from those countries would have no problem. China is qualitatively different.
> must be bought out at some crappy valuation
Nobody is forcing the sale, they also have the option to stop operating -- like Google chose to do re: China when they refused PRC demands.
> WhatsApp for example should be forced to sell its Indian operations to Reliance Industries
You mean like how US companies are forced to vest technology with local partners to operate in China?

For example, non-Chinese companies cannot sell electric cars in China without handing over their trade secrets.
Is that fair?
