-BUSINESS IDEA- 1- Steal all of TikToks users and music and release a copycat product.

If Tik Tok gets banned in the United States there is a business opportunity to quickly recreate a copycat and try to onboard all of their users. This is a high-risk high-reward business idea as it's likely illegal to use all of their music and steal their secrets. However, this is a common theme in Silicon Valley where entrepreneurs ask for forgiveness rather than permission.
