"WASHINGTON - Tucked inside the sprawling $95 billion national security package that President Joe Biden’s signed Wednesday is a provision that could ban TikTok, with an important catch: It won’t happen before the 2024 election.
That means TikTok, which boasts 170 million American users, will remain a force throughout the campaign, providing a platform for candidates to reach predominantly younger voters. An earlier version of the bill could have banned the popular video-sharing app prior to the election, but recent changes mean lawmakers and Biden may not face such an immediate voter backlash."

I don’t have TikTok. I don’t care about TikTok, but this seems pretty stupid right before an election.
That's the whole point. TikTok is showing young people Biden's connection to the war crimes happening in Gaza. They're doing this to try to stop the flow of information that's making Biden look bad.
This banning is what happens when you elect old, out of touch politician. FYI, I’m in Iowa. My senator is 92.
It has nothing to do with age and everything to do with capitalism. US capitalists want to have complete control over the flow of communication and information in society. They can shape the bounds of political discourse. It also helps that TikTok has a trove of user data that companies like OpenAI would love to mine. Every organ of our system is geared towards this. Under capitalism “free market” is selectively applied, the moment an exception occurs (Huawei, TikTok, etc) they slip the mask briefly. They did the same to Japan in the 80s, by the way.
@@xx133 Ironically, this tiktok ban has nothing to do with capitalism. It has everything to do with the flow of information about Gaza and West Bank being uncensored by the IDF and allies.
No, it's because the chinese government can demand user information from chinese owned companies because they live in an autocracy
@@TheTruthDragonNJ09 Thank God I'm not the only person saying this.
@@imnotmike - Senator Pete Ricketts basically confirmed it during the aid package discussion on CSPAN-2 lol
Instead of worrying about China's minority ownership of TikTok, they should worry about Israel's ownership of the US government.
But it's Israel that is concerned about TikTok. Israel is the driving force behind banning TikTok, because TikTok doesn't censor content about the Israel Palestine situation, so young people are seeing all the atrocities they're committing over there.
The US and you. It's your taxes being sent to Israel to provide for their universal healthcare. Something the US citizens don't even have.
And that’s when it gets anti semetic
@@k1To12310 It’s not if it is true
You mean the US owns Israel. We fund them because of where they are located. Does Ukraine also own the US? You make no sense.
Ban Facebook along with tik tok, I could care less. I'd love to return a world with much less social media.
me to,,,, BUT IT AINT GOING TO HAPPEN , HAVE TO GO WITH IT OR LEFT BEHIND
Facebook is dead. Barely anyone uses it.
*couldn't care less.
@@TheTruthDragonNJ09 WHY DO YOU COMMENT ?
@@user-wx5br7nw5d - Why do YOU?
So the president is blackmailing tik tok......either you sell it or we ban it? How do people not see how bad this government has become?
The government is giving them a choice to divest from Tiktok so they don’t lose massive amounts of money and have their stock collapse due to them losing access to the American market, which is by far the biggest market in the world due to how much Americans can collectively afford to spend. Advertisers pay a lot more for advertising to Americans that any other country
So they can sell TikTok to an American or European or Canadian company or we’re going to ban it. We cannot allow our greatest enemy to be able to influence Americans with propaganda. China doesn’t allow any American social media in their country. Even TikTok is banned because they don’t want their people openly communicating with the outside world
Corrupt to the core
@@tylerclayton6081so we should have companies and groups stateside do the propaganda instead? Strive to be like the Chinese government and ban things lawmakers decide they don’t like because they have been payed off?
He's blackmailing voters to, by scaring us with Trump, so that he can continue genocide.
Tiktok is full pf brain rot. If they banned it permanently it is good for the future generations of usa.
Tik Tok ban? Where's the AIPAC ban?
America is going to hell. What a sh*t show!
TikTok has a winning record in the courts already, after successfully suing to defeat a proposed ban in 2020. TikTok CEO Shou Chew said Wednesday that the company would go to court to try to remain online in the United States.
Why should the United States allow TikTok to steal American data and influence kids to hate this country if China doesn't allow American apps in their country? China banned Facebook so how come people are not upset with China over that? It's silly to allow China to influence and steal our data if they don't allow us to do the same and they do not have our best interest at heart. If they sell TikTok to another company that's not controlled by the Chinese Communist party then everything is fine. There's no logical reason to allow malicious Chinese software on our devices. Even China doesn't allow the American version in their country because they know it's bad by design. Tik tok had a winning record because people were unaware of the threat. Now it will be banned unless it breaks free from the CCP.
As a teacher who sees high school students GLUED to perverse, violent, sadistic videos ALL DAY LONG there's nothing I'd love to see more than Tiktok shut down in the U.S.
Unless TikTok is sold to a company that's not controlled by the CCP then it will not be allowed no matter what the CEO thinks.
Strange how my comment about TikTok keeps disappearing. What I'm saying is not offensive or has any bad words in it. Seems to happen a lot if someone talks about China or TikTok on here.
It will be banned in the US just like China bans American aps like Facebook. It looks like China lost a powerful digital weapon in their arsenal against the West.
ADL and AlPAC did this
Shumer was talking about aid to Ukraine not tik tok when he said that.
I agree.
I don't use or visit TikTok, so I don't really care.
However, I do believe banning TikTok goes against the 1st amendment.
This is far worse than that. It weaponizing the dollar, forcing China to abandon the dollar (BRICS)
It doesn't because it is a Chinese company. Chinese don't have 1'st amendment rights in the US.
@@plau2007 actually yes it is unconstitutional because many Americans depend on tiktok to make money. If the American government succeeds in banning could tif tok there will be banning many Americans from having the freedom to speak
I do not. This is a ban on a product, not anyone’s speech.
@@Angel-ei1ip If said product allows a person to speak freely without censorship and the government bans the product then it is a ban on the freedom of speech. This has already been proven in the court of law back in 2020, when the government first tried to ban tic toc in the first place. That is why it is going back to court again. Our government is supposed to be all about protecting people's freedom of speech and their ability to express themselves freely. But our country loves to allow medià companies to censor Americans all the time. Or when the name of protecting people from harmful speech. Which is still unconstitutional because it takes people's ability away to decide for themselves what is harmful for them. That is the real reason our government doesn't like tiktok it goes against their pursuit view of China. They are constantly saying that China infringes on people's of freedom of speech and does not allow them to speak freely. Yet America does it all the time and has no problem with censoring us and letting companies censor us such as RUclips censorship of gun videos and other forms of artistic freedom of speech. Even Instagram bans people or speaking a little too freely. For example a person says if someone comes into my house I'm going to shoot her ass Their comment is immediately removed. The fact of the matter is our government is not like the fact that tic toc encourages freedom of speech without censorship. The corporations in America don't like that. they want to be able to censor us as much as they like. Corporations don't like it when we speak freely and speak out against them and how America is abusing its citizens. They don't like the fact that Americans use tic toc to speak freely about America's abuses on its own citizens and on other countries around the world.
Wow…There’s people in this country who can’t even afford to have good quality healthcare and all he’s worrying about is funding wars overseas and banning TikTok?! So sad… We really need to vote this guy out 🗳️ 😔
That’s every president.
@@NicholasKlacsanzkyICM What other President has talked about banning TikTok? The truth is that Biden has done a lot of good for average American's, though that doesn't change the abominable actions he's taken in providing Israel with weapons and funds. Trump on the other hand, as a sociopath and narcissist could not give one flying crap about anyone aside from himself. Great choices there. I don't know why we're arguing. Biden is still better by a slim margin. I'm just watching to see how slim he makes it or if he eliminates even that margin for himself.
@@NicholasKlacsanzkyICM Biden ran in 2020 on public opion. It is now off the table. All presidents lied. He just lied more than others.
@@gracieb.3054 Biden has not done anything he promised. Public option and min wage off the table. Drilling in Alska. making Trump tax cut permanet. Now try to ban cheap EV from Meico. He is not serious about the environment either. And funding genocide is not forgivable.
Rich donors paid politicians to ban tiktok.
Rich donors paid politicians to oppose the banning of tiktok.
This has absolutely nothing to do with "national security" and keeping America safe. It's all about pleasing the rich and eliminating competition, as always.
Nobody is being paid to oppose banning TikTok. Specifically, Israel paid politicians to ban TikTok.
A certain tribe doesn't own Tik-Tok. That's what this is all about. Period.
Come on Anna you know he was talking about the aid, not the ban. Your better than that.
It still doesn't change what was written into the bill. You know that. You're better than pretending you don't.
@@gracieb.3054 I never said it was. I was only responding to Anna saying Chuck Shumer was implying that banning Tiktok was helping American allies.
And that is still wrong. How is funding genocide help the world.
They just lost millions of Gen z voters. 😵💫🙄
Yep, congrats moron, you just blew the youth vote 👍 though reality is the war country he funds they dont like it cause youth see through the lies older generations just believed, so thats why this is happening. All these corrupt dinosaurs need to go. This may help the protests to get them all the hell out already
Biden is gonna be really confused when Trump runs away with the election.
And what does it matter? Where are they going to go? Both democrats and republicans supported banning TikTok. Sure, they might be pissed off in the short term. But they don't have an alternative to turn to that they can vote for.
Meanwhile, the damage is done, and the information flow to young people is now completely under control by the US government. They will see nothing but US propaganda from now on, which will change how they feel in the future, and they'll fall in line just like everybody else...
Pretty sure Chuck was talking about the money when he said we won’t turn our back on the world. Not the tik tok ban.
They all need to be voted out!
They can ban Tiktok but dont ban the harmful chemicals in the food that most other countries have already banned. SMDH
The truth will still come out about our evil buisness
We can’t have nice things anymore
This bill is going right to the Courts.. It willl be tied up therw for years
Nobody but the government wants a TikTok ban
🇮🇱👎
TikTok should have rights in the US as many Google has in China.
@@plau2007 maybe YOU should have that many rights
IZREL DOES! They're losing the youth and public opinion on TikTok.
Facebook is the one who is behind this. Who else? They are the ones that hired lobbyists
This is why bills should be standalone bills.
Biden is losing the youth vote with this one...
It's APAC and ADL who are behind this , they are getting over America
How does this help the country exactly? Because this is stupid and sending that money to Israel is ridiculous 😒
I've been saying it. They're real quick in taking things away, but when it comes to helping people, they always say they don't have the money or we can't do anything. We don't live in a democracy anymore.
That comment wasn’t about Tik-Tok, I didn’t expect ignorance from TYT
All of these TikTok stories insist on completely ignoring the reason TikTok has been singled out. I am a retired computer security professional who spent many months, a few years ago, fighting a cyber attack on an organization I worked for. The attack appeared to be coming from the Chinese military. In that role, I also kept an eye on other technologies to be certain we did not introduce anything into our environment that could be used as a way in. For instance, there were and I am sure are currently, many companies manufacturing IoT (Internet of Things) devices, like cameras and network based data storage devices, that have ties to Chinese government and/or the Chinese military. I understand the concern about the political motivations in this country for "controlling" social media but I just want to make others aware that the Chinese government/military having access to information gathered by these platforms is a real threat and should not be dismissed.
dude, the CCP has given us access to pc parts, phones, drone parts, and so much more... all of these things we'd be priced out of access to normally by the US capitalist class if it wasn't for decades of CCP market subversion. the ghouls in washington and the capitalist class who buy laws that work for them at your detriment, the ones making legislation that hurts you are the actual threat to national security. corrupt politicians making fascist legislation are the true threat to national security. financial responsibility laws forcing people to purchase insurance but enforcing no price caps on them, and giving people no social option, has already caused a huge problem in this country and created a criminal class out of people who are simply being priced out of access to insurance because they're not profitable enough to some narcissistic ghoul. the entire nation operates via the mechanics of narcissistic abuse. they hurt you then punish you for how you react to being hurt. law enforcement profits from hurting you for how you react to bad laws that hurt you. this entire system needs to be dismantled and rebuilt into a socialist nation. and honestly, I applaud the CCP for their work in targeting these narcissistic ghouls who profit from exploiting us. I would much rather live under the CCP's rule than these narcissistic Israel-comprimised ghouls.
The people sho subscribe to TYT are idiot simpletons who believe themselves to be 'worldly intelligencia'
@@user-ravenxv How would your browsing history be a security threat? Do we post military secret on social media. And you are OK the US government spying on us instead. I don't believe you are a security expert.
@azuraclient Actually they do. 4000 Chinese Scientist and Engineers moved back in 2022 . The count isn't out yet in 2023. And the list includes the ONLY non-American VP of Microsoft and creator of Microsoft's AI program.
first off china can get that infomation anywhere..FB sell your data pretty much every company does an there is an open market for people to buy this kind of data an nothing to do with tiktok...also amazong listen to people an collects data with alexa why not ban that too
There's little to prevent TikTok's CEO, Shou Chew, and its founder, Zhang Yiming, from launching another platform similar to TikTok. They possess the expertise and resources to potentially create and promote a new platform if they choose to do so.
The bill bans all foreign adversary owned platforms, so it will get banned too.
Look what happened in India.
First tik tok then 56 other ccp owned apps.
At the end of the day free speech is less important than national security and if a govt decides that there is nothing a company can really do.
Tiktok is not going anywhere.....well every place but here.
Even if they did that, they'd be starting from the ground. Building a user base is the most difficult part of creating something like this. And they'd be losing their user base and starting over. It's the same reason TYT doesn't change its name, even though they found out that it's associated with some bad things historically. Once you've built your brand, that brand becomes very valuable. Starting over would cost you countless millions - or even billions - of dollars.
@@imnotmike I agree! However, in this case, I believe that the TikTok loyalist will sign up for the new platform in a heartbeat. Look at Trump's Truth Social after he was banned from Twitter and FB.
Ok , people will get a vpn. Problem solved

Why not stop selling farms to China?

As a Canadian, I can tell you that yes, meta can/will block all news media.
Yep! Same with the ABC company. They own Google and YT plus a dozen others, are actively shadowbanning content and users, make it nearly impossible to use Android/ Samsung without a Google account, and are constantly stealing, mining, and scraping our data. Remember when people learned that their phones are literally listening at all times and tracking us even when turned off? THAT HASN'T CHANGED! Tiktok is definitely not the scary monster of tech companies. It's Google.
Google already does politically motivated algorithm alterations.
@marshallsweatherhiking1820 yep. But in Canada they've removed the ability to see any news articles on meta platforms like all encompassing no news on meta in Canada
The fact that this is even a big deal blows my mind.
…and banning tiktok effects me how?!?!?
They wouldn't be doing it if it didn't affect you.
The “Slippery Slope” argument, learning is fundamental😂 👍
Democracy or Dictatorship ?
That platform allows all animal torture videos. Videos where people can chime in an make suggestions on things to do with cats, dogs, and monkeys. The most sickening vile things you can imagine while innocent animals usually tied down, writhe in agony. China has ZERO laws regarding animal cruelty. And you fks say no problem.

Welp.... with the incoming TikTok ban, my guess is that VPN subscriptions are gonna skyrocket..... 😁😁
No. They'll get what they want. TikTok will sell ownership to US owners that will alter their algorithm to push Israel's propaganda.
@@imnotmikeNo they won't. The US doesn't contribute a quarter to Byte Dances earnings. Goodbye to those without VPN.
A fool and his money soon part.
@@imnotmike Tiktok is already60% owned by Americans. Force property transfer is agianst the law. The founders are now Singaporean. The only opposition US has is the HQ address.
Damn kids should throw a party and get together and do their stupid little dances at the party instead of doing them alone in their bedroom.
VPNs will make more money if the ban pass
Not really. They'll force TikTok to sell the company to owners who will enforce US propaganda.
So how does a TikTok ban not go against Democracy?
Our representatives that WE voted into office, VOTED to ban TikTok... Our president who was voted into office by a majority vote (Electoral College and majority) will sign it into LAW. If the LAW is challenged in the courts for being UNCONSTITUTIONAL, and the highest court agrees with the Constitutionality of the LAW, then TikTok becomes dead meat.
So it wasn't just a "king" pronouncing the banning of TikTok, it's going through the democratic process.
@@pheresy1367 to be fair, the representatives we elect have zero accountability to us, never directly ask what their constituents want, and are constantly passing legislation that directly benefits them and not us. What you've described is a Representative government with democratic elections - two very different things. If we lived in a true democracy, the government would be asking us if we want a private company banned in the US. But we don't and they never do.
Furthermore, by requiring the company to divest from their foreign owners, they are essentially forcing the company to sell preferably to American owners. And who are the people in America wealthy enough to but a massive tech company? The 1%.
Never forget that the US was originally founded with the intentions of it being a capitalist theocracy. It's always all about the money in the US

Where were you when China banned American tech companies? 🤔
China's authoritarian attempts to control information is China's problem. The US's authoritarian attempts to control information is our problem. We can't do anything about how the Chinese government treats their citizens. We're supposed to stop our government from mistreating us.
So we can ban TikTok, but we can’t have universal housing. There’s capitalism for you lol😂😂😂
Yeah... cause that's the problem smh 😂
In his opinion, Judge Donald W. Molloy of the U.S. District Court for the District of Montana concluded that TikTok and a group of TikTok users were likely to succeed on their First Amendment, Supremacy Clause, and Commerce Clause claims against the state.
Hope so. This is truly frightening.
Where's Tom from MySpace when we need him?
The fact they are only banning one social media platform makes the whole thing suspicious.
It's because TikTok is the only social media platform that the government has no control over the content, unlike FB, IG, etc that the government has major control over.
The Tribe already owns Instagram Anna. Jesus Christ wake up.🤦
We’ll miss the Chinese propaganda

Congress isn’t going after Instagram and is only going after TikTok? It’s almost like Congress is actually acting principally lmao
It’s almost as if capital owners control Congress.
WTF‽ They've got their priorities all screwed up!
I have talked to some gen Z'ers that were not into politics at all but had strong opinions about Israel. It was weird.
I find it sickening that they are more focused on banning tic toc then banning hunger & poverty. Our politicians are more focused on helping foreign Nations than helping the American people. This vote shows just how out of touch politicians are with their voters
No they’re cutting ways Americans can make extra money using via social media and networking. Remember they are trimming side hustles and tic tok is a major one. After tic tok is banned RUclips will have to cut its payment to people for content. Bye bye side hustles. Uber and many others will be trimming those areas too.
Fun Fact: TikTok may be a Chinese company, but it has been banned in China since the beginning.
So we should strive to be like China?
@@memo2933 I think you're missing the point.
High gas prices, record inflation, people starving, border problems. Banning tik tok is what that old fool puts what little energy he has into.

Problem is, it's a Chinese company and Chinese law states that the government must have a back door access to gather private information on users, including US citizens, which violates US privacy laws. Also, any videos that are pro-Ukraine, pro-Israel, or pro-Taiwan are given community guidelines strikes and taken down, but all pro-muskovian, pro-Hamas, pro-Iran, and pro-China videos, no matter how violent, are boosted.
Stop believing Fox News
Right. Then why do we not have a problem with the fact that 70% of smartphones in America are made in China? If what you say is true, then wouldn't all of those smartphones be mandated to have a back door for the Chinese government to access information?
TikTok doesn't ban anything. They don't push propaganda for either side.
And that's the problem. The US - and more specifically Israel - doesn't like having a platform that won't push their propaganda.
Did you realize that TikTok is also banned in China?
Cut off foreign aid. It's ridiculous how much money we're sending.
The fall of the empire
But it won't be banned. It will be sold to the highest bidder, after which its value will go up about 25%. It's a total cash grab. There's no reason to worry about TikTok any more than Facebook or Twitter or Instagram.
That’s because you’re ignorant asf. All those apps you named are shady now imagine if they were banned here in the US? TikTok is owned by China & banned in Mainland China … and in Indian. Plus banned from government devices within 16 countries, including US. Why isn’t the same app being used on citizens in China? That’s not odd to you?
Name a US tech app in the same situation?
Facebook boring
Sounds like time to pick a good VPN!
Sounds like some ish North Korea would do.
USA is north Korea there's no freedom left for anyone who disagree with the government
Bye bye Tik Tok . this almost sounds like a ploy to get it owned by the USA.... sell tik tok or we will ban it? 😂ridiculous
And Steve Manuchin wants to buy it, that’s corruption.
RUclips would be the one to gain from this tik tok ban.
But youtube already has algorithms that pump up American propaganda.
So get a VPN ...problem solved.
This is the most toothless action ever.
This isn't like a porn ban. It just won't work.
This isn't a ban meant to stop people from doing things on an individual level. This ban is meant to control the flow of information to the masses. It's meant to influence the minds of the young by ensuring they don't have access to any news sources that are not approved by the state.
I thought Schumer was talking about Israel when he said the Senate's not turning their back on you. Maybe that was his previous speech and he just edited it to be about tick tock,?
Not the begging for money mid video lol
Yeah, that's the guy who rushed up to your car window at the intersection.
They have a bipartisan deal for Ukraine Israel they don't have a bipartisan bill for the American citizens
I do not use tiktok much because seems like bunch of goofy stuff, but isn't this on the same line as book banning and repressing freedom of speech or creativity or something? Is there something that I missed about this?
This was bound to happen. I mean how much are we supposed to let China get away with?
China hates TikTok. TikTok is banned in China. Look it up. They're banned in China for the same reason they're trying to ban it in America. Because they give unbiased information, rather than state sponsored propaganda, and governments hate that.
You really think this is about China?
Chuck Schumer is one of my state's Senator's. He's been in power here and Congress for too long. Unlike Bernie, Schumer's ideas are so long in the tooth.

The "security risk" from Tik Tok is the same as the "security risk" from Huwai, meaning it is : "Non Existent." It simply boils down to MONEY and COMPETITION, as usual !!
Amen!
It has nothing to do with money and competition. It has to do with propaganda. TikTok doesn't pull the line and push American propaganda. They give unbiased information, and we will not tolerate unbiased information. It's the same reason TikTok is banned in China.
So they ban bTikTok, not like they banned internet damn stop crying. Some of us grew up without internet, computors, cellphones in the 70s and 80's ad we survived just fine. Matter of fact I'd love to go back and not having the shit and have a less hectic life.
Can't Tik Tok simply be replaced by another video sharing platform? Seems too easy so I must be wrong.

* No ban will happen: If ByteDance does agree to sell TikTok; there are plenty of companies that would want to buy TikTok.
This is all under ByteDance's control. What sucks for them is that they could end up doing a 'fire sale' and getting less money than they would otherwise get without this law.
That said, Alphabet (Google + ...) and Meta (Facebook + ...) and other companies aren't getting this type of treatment, and they have been caught disregarding the privacy concerns of people who use their products. It is hypocritical that companies that aren't bound to the CCP are not held to any meaningful standard of privacy; an appropriate law should be passed that puts these companies products in jeopardy if they don't abide to something reasonable.
Examples;
* Meta, as a general policy, wants to know who you actually are; no pretense of having any good privacy options.
* Alphabet being sloppy (ex: Chrome browser using tracking information in "Incognito" (privacy) mode; not actually private! Alphabet has claimed that they 'fixed' that problem with the current versions of Chrome ... but, why trust them?
This is completely missing the point.
A ban will happen if TikTok does not agree to sell to someone who will push US propaganda.
TikTok is not bound by the CCP. TikTok is banned in China for the same reason, because they give unbiased information, and refuse to push Chinese propaganda, just like they refuse to push US propaganda.
Authoritarian governments like China and the US, ban the free exchange of unfiltered information.
It’s great to see a foreign company stand up for our rights while lawmakers trample on them
Honestly tic tok should be banned. The version in china as oppose to america is night and day
TikTok is a brilliant cyber weapon.
my tiktok algorithm gives me videos about linguistics, physics, politics, content critical of the US government. the version in china is their own nationalist regime propaganda. why would you want that?
They don't have a version in China. TikTok is banned in China. Because authoritarian governments ban information sources that don't pull the line and push their propaganda.
I hope TikTok wins in court
That platform allows all animal torture videos where people can chime in an make suggestions on things to do with cats, dogs, and monkeys which have been tied down, the most sickening vile things you can imagine while innocent animals writhe in agony. China has ZERO laws regarding animal cruelty. There IS A LIMIT TO WHAT SHOULD BE ALLOWED.
@@j.d.waterhouse4197 Yes let's do away with the constitution and be more like China.
Biden doesn’t care what we Americans think. No one asked us about TikTok.
Biden cares very much about what Americans think. That's why he's banning TikTok, because they are telling people the truth, and that changes how they think. Biden wants the government to control all of the information that goes to the citizens, so he can control what Americans think.
Biden only thinks about Israel and what Israelis think.. 💭
It’s almost like he forgets he is the President of America NOT Israel!
Biden is Netanyahu lapdog 🐕.. always have been and always will be smh..
TIK TOK BAN TOTAL POLITICAL BS! FREE SPEECH/PRESS 4 ever!
He resembles Netanyahu more and more each time we see him.
More concerned who owns the Supreme Court then who owns TikTok
