They’ve been trying to ban it way before that, and during Trump’s mandate.
That’s kind of the point, though? I find it interesting that after all this time, they suddenly had to prioritize it and push things through – right at the time when it was making people become much more conscious of Israel’s genocide.
This is such a shit take. Just open up an identical competitor that resides on US soil and no one will ban it. The problem is that TikTok is literally Chinese Spyware that is gathering insane amounts of information on US citizens.

Y’all would probably feel differently if Russia owned TikTok and used it to spread pro-Russia propoganda.
insane amounts of information on US citizens.
Yeah… that’s the FBI’s job!
“Broken clock” and all that. TikTok is being banned because it’s a major propaganda arm of a country that’s said for the past 20 years they want to undermine the US. You can argue about the merits of this reasoning, but your “IT WAS DE JOOZ” conspiracy theory is neither as new nor intelligent as you think it is.
There’s an ongoing genocide and people are still trying to weaponize antisemitism.
this wiki article came out on 6th of march 2024 lmao. Not saying, this doesn’t exist irl, but it’s really funny to me 0;
At the bottom of each Wikipedia entry, there is a reference section. It’s not there for show. Use it.
They should ban meta and Google for the same data scraping for governments
