In 2020, Trump signed an executive order to ban TikTok from app stores, warning: "The United States must take aggressive action against the owners of TikTok to protect our national security."

The Senate just passed a TikTok "ban" as part of a larger foreign aid bill.
Once Biden signs it into law, ByteDance will have 270 days to sell TikTok.

US isn’t even in the top five of TikTok users, I’d give them the bird and just disable the US.
