US House Approves Legislation Paving the Way for Potential TikTok Ban
US House Approves Legislation Paving the Way for Potential TikTok Ban
Welcome to Fan Reviews News.
The House of Representatives just passed legislation that could potentially lead to a ban of one of the most popular social media platforms in the world, TikTok.
This bill requires TikTok to sever its ties with its Chinese parent company, ByteDance, due to concerns over national security.
Lawmakers argue that the Chinese government could use its intelligence laws to access the data of TikTok's American users.
However, the fate of this measure is still uncertain as it now moves to the Senate for further consideration.
If this bill becomes law, TikTok would have approximately five months to separate itself from ByteDance.
Failure to comply would result in app stores in the United States being prohibited from hosting the platform.
TikTok has responded to this development by condemning the House vote and calling on the Senate to carefully consider the facts.
