TikTok has quickly become one of the most popular apps across the world, with users able to watch videos ranging across a number of different categories. Users can spend hours on the platform scrolling through the content on the site, but there have long-been questions surrounding whether it could be outlawed in the United States.
The chances of the app being banned have hinged on the ownership of TikTok, with claims stating that it could be outlawed unless Chinese company ByteDance sell their share. Safety of users is the biggest issue centering around the ownership of the app, with many having security fears focusing around the data and the company’s links to the Chinese government.
It is worth noting that previous attempts to block the app in the US have fallen short. Donald Trump previously attempted to outlaw the app back in 2020, and he remains focused on this pledge should he regain power in the election later this year. But, the fact that the bill has been signed by Joe Biden means that TikTok is in danger in the United States.
The bill was signed earlier this year, giving ByteDance nine months to sell the social media app to a new buyer. However, Trump could be the one road block in the way of the law being passed, as he could block it should he win the election later this year.
