Starting Sunday it won’t be available in App Store. Full ban coming later. Citing National Security reasons.

I know the kids loved it. I like a lot of the new media in general but I think TikTok is a steaming pile of garbage.

Bye TikTok

So if you have it downloaded, you'll be grandfathered. Sweet. TT is a glorious time waste.

Not really. If you already have the app which millions of people already do you can still view TikTok.

As someone who was wanting to download TikTok next week, now I understand what institutional racism feels like.

Sadly no more nurse vids. The stuff I saw my kids and their friends do on there was appalling. I made my kids delete it a while back. They weren’t happy but I’m sure they find another way to release their teen angst.

How will our nurse heroes show us how bad COVID really is through dance interpretation in the ER?

The order also bans companies in the US from "enabling the functioning or optimization of the mobile application in the US," from November 12, which would effectively stop existing users from continuing to use TikTok.


It won't work after the 12th of November

They are shutting down the Chinese version on November 12th. It’s gives whoever enough time to get an American version running though.

The cheeto apparently wants the government involved in the company.

Oracle and ByteDance have submitted a proposal that would spin out TikTok’s global business into a new US company that would have an all-American board and a security committee headed by someone with government security clearances.

How is this Ok to people? You want the government in all your companies?

I think TikTok is stupid as shite.

I'm all for sticking it to China and their duplicitous ways with these kinds of things.

But I can't deny the libertarian in me questions an executive order - from any president - telling people what apps that can and cannot download or what companies they can and cannot use.

Cheeto man said they are using Americans mobile phone data against us. TikTok transmits user data to China. Something I guess this administration thinks is a matter of our nations financial security.

I kinda have to agree.
