This is quite concerning!
Well, it's good that Trump is making the CCP/#China sell al of its interests in this company, StayNTouch, but very concerning is what or WHO they may have had access to in the mean time.

Trump is making them divest over national security concerns.
StayNTouch is a HOTEL property management software company that the CCP/China acquired in 2018.

Trump said that the Chinese company who took control of it “might take action that threatens to impair the national security of the United States.”
So how would they threaten national security using hotel management software?

Well, one...I would certainly wonder if Trump Hotel data is part of StayNTouch.
Also, what about other politicians and/or government officials? Is any of their data accessible through StayNTouch?

Yup, there it is:
" data (including customer data managed and stored by StayNTouch)"
" data (including customer data managed and stored by StayNTouch)"
While they have 120 days to divest, Trump ordered them to immediately stop accessing any hotel guest data, including any of its affiliates or subsidiaries.
(Not that they're going to follow that order, but uhhh, it leads me to believe that the CCP bought it access info about hotel guests)
YIKES, this must be VERY urgent....
StayNTouch has to certify to CFIUS every single week until they certify divestiture that they're in compliance with this order

They also have to let government employees designated by CFIUS onto all of their premises in the US to inspect their books, records, correspondence, etc...
Trump also authorized AG Barr to "take any steps necessary" to enforce this order.
The whole thing seems kind of dire. I'll bet you anything the CCP's been using it to track government officials, probably even Trump himself and/or his Admin, probably military officials, etc.
