As much as I hate it banning Tiktok would allow for banning any other company for NationalSecurity™ and you know how that goes. Cough cough nostr:npub1sn0wdenkukak0d9dfczzeacvhkrgz92ak56egt7vdgzn8pv2wfqqhrjdv9 cough cough

They can only ban foreign owned companies. And currently only from a small list of adversarial countries. Notably, China, Russia, Iran, N Korea.

They would have to make another law to add more countries.

Apps that they can ban with this law besides tictok would be like , WeChat (which I actually use) , Temu, DiDi, maybe Yandex apps.
