TikTok Ban Legislation in the US

Legislation advancing in the House Energy and Commerce Committee could lead to a potential TikTok ban in the US, with a requirement for its Chinese parent company to divest control of the app within 165 days. The bill, supported by the White House, aims to address concerns over data privacy and national security risks tied to TikTok's alleged ties to Beijing. The bipartisan move reflects growing worries about foreign influence and censorship, impacting TikTok's large user base, creators, and potential precedents for other apps linked to foreign adversaries.
