I think other countries have already, and with the China/Iran news it should be a done deal to ax it...

The army has had it banned from government issued phones for several months so this doesn't surprise me.

I am no longer interested in reading, hearing or otherwise being informed WRT what some leader or another is considering. Action interests me. Talk does not interest me. What a person is "considering" bores me. What a person DOES interests me.

Other than the colossal waste of time, what is the perceived concern/fear with these apps?

That might not be a very popular move. There’s over 37 million TikTok users in the US.

I almost made a post today asking why it hasn’t already been banned but I’m not much for starting posts. How long has it been here? The last thing the US needs is another major social media platform.

There was some weird pedo shite circulating and as of this morning was still up.

ETA it’s in the comment section of the tweet in the OP

The first I heard about Tik Tok.. the media was saying that it was some type of Chinese spy app..So I didn't have a great opinion back then..
