It's official: The US will ban TikTok if it doesn't disconnect from China
👉The United States government has passed a law forcing TikTok’s owners to sell the platform or face a national ban.
👉TikTok will need to be sold in nine months, although the US can extend this period by three months.
👉This law will likely face First Amendment scrutiny, which could delay the ban or even cancel it.
United States President Joe Biden today signed a bill that forces TikTok’s parent company, ByteDance, to sell the popular video-sharing platform within nine months. If the sale doesn’t happen, TikTok will be banned across the entire US.
