Following a swift series of events in the US government, a bill has been passed in the House that could lead to the divestment of TikTok or its potential ban. The Senate is next in line to review the bill, with significant support already evident. Meanwhile, TikTok users are actively responding to the changing political landscape and its potential repercussions.
Interviews conducted by TechCrunch revealed that many TikTok users are opposing the ban and are concerned about its impact on small businesses.
While much attention is focused on the ban, the prospect of TikTok being separated from its parent company, ByteDance, is also being debated. However, the Chinese government’s stance against such a sale complicates this path. As the bill progresses, it remains uncertain whether there will be multiple approaches or if it will ultimately address only one issue.
