I dunno if any of y'all use that app but be prepared to never use it again if you're in the u. s. lol
This is our tax dollars at work folks! So it just passed overwhelmingly in the house. there's a decent chance it passes in the senate AND President Biden signals he would sign it. hmmm doesn't look good for the app! I personally don't use this app but like seriously? are there not other serious concerns we should focus on atm? lol
House passes bill that could lead to US ban of TikTok
Who voted for the bill: The House vote was 352 to 65, with 50 Democrats and 15 Republicans voting in opposition. In a rare show of bipartisanship, the measure advanced unanimously out of the powerful House Energy and Commerce Committee, and President Joe Biden has said he would sign the bill if it makes it to his desk.
Why the bill passed: Lawmakers supportive of the bill have argued TikTok poses a national security threat because the Chinese government could use its intelligence laws against TikTok's Chinese parent company, ByteDance, forcing it to hand over the data of US app users.
