HOUSE VOTES ON TIKTOK “BAN” BILL WEDNESDAY
The House leadership has just announced it will use special procedures to fast-track the bill that will in essence ban TikTok. This video explains what that means and the likelihood of this bill passing in the House and Senate. Plus, lawmakers report their phones are ringing off the hook from constituents who are upset about this bill and they aren't so happy about it. TikTok says...too bad.

This Thursday energy and commerce will try and ban tiktok again. Go check out @underthedesknews on tiktok for more information. They will talk more about on the minisode podcast called American fever dream.
This is seriously dangerous for us because they talk about imposing civil penalties for apple and google if they host the tiktok app like 5'000 per user per day.

There are some Democrats who have benefited from tiktok. Tell your reps to veto this bill.
@tiktok
Here is the link for information on it.

please watch this video and contact your senators if you care about freedom of speech.
this “tiktok ban” is not just about tiktok. if this bill passes, this means they can do this to any app or social media site based on their country of origin or based on what congress deems a “threat”. this will also help pave the way for KOSA and other bad internet bills.
also, tiktok is just a great space for small businesses, learning, expressing ourselves, sharing art, creating community, and so much more.
we need to push back on this. we need everyone involved. please join this fight against censorship.

Here's a nice summary of the tiktok ban that isn't just jokes about how ridiculous the senators or whatever were being.
Ultimately, the United States Government wants to have the authority to take down any app they deem "unfit" which will severely limit free speech.
Also the senators are being ridiculous. They didn't let him answer questions. They asked questions like "Are you aware of the medical information on your app" when they were the ones bitching about being sensored when misinformation about COVID was being taken down.
And the senate didn't really have a point to all of this. They just wanted to get this guy in front of them to rant about what they believe Tiktok is like then get mad at him when he tried to correct them or answer their questions.
And the way they treated this man still feels very racist to me.
Also there was a bit where they got mad that a picture of a gun was in tiktok and the accused him of trying to introduce young kids to violent tendencies because of that video. Was weird.
There's a lot of good criticisms of tiktok, which is why I'm mad that these Senators are making up fictitious facts as some kind of "gotcha" moment.

Arthur Delaney at HuffPost:
Former President Donald Trump said Monday that young voters should blame President Joe Biden if the U.S. government bans the popular social media app TikTok, even though Trump supported such a ban when he was president. Congress is on the verge of passing a bill that would require TikTok’s Chinese parent company, ByteDance, to sell TikTok in less than a year or else see the video-sharing platform banned from U.S. app stores. Biden supports the policy and has said he would sign the bill into law.
“Just so everyone knows, especially the young people, Crooked Joe Biden is responsible for banning TikTok,” Trump wrote on his Truth Social platform. “He is the one pushing it to close, and doing it to help his friends over at Facebook become richer and more dominant, and able to continue to fight, perhaps illegally, the Republican Party.” Trump’s statement slamming Biden for the TikTok ban is a remarkable reversal for the former president, who issued an executive order in August 2020 banning TikTok absent a divestiture by ByteDance ― essentially the same policy now under consideration. TikTok said at the time that the forced divestiture and ban would violate First Amendment and due process rights and was just a pretext for Trump’s ���broader campaign of anti-China rhetoric in the run-up to the U.S. election.” A federal court quickly blocked the ban before it could take effect. A bill passed by Congress would likely face legal challenges as well.
Trump said in the text of his 2020 order that TikTok represented a national security threat because its data collection “threatens to allow the Chinese Communist Party access to Americans’ personal and proprietary information — potentially allowing China to track the locations of Federal employees and contractors, build dossiers of personal information for blackmail, and conduct corporate espionage.” Republicans and Democrats in the U.S. House said essentially the same thing when they passed a TikTok ban in March. The bill stalled in the Senate, but over the weekend the House passed another TikTok ban, this time as part of a broader bill that includes a variety of foreign policy provisions popular with lawmakers on both sides of the aisle. It now looks more likely than ever that the TikTok divestiture bill could become law.
Donald Trump, who proposed a TikTok ban in 2020 during his "Presidency", slams President Joe Biden for supporting a bill that is all but likely to be signed to ban TikTok in the USA if its parent company ByteDance doesn't sell it within 9 months to a year. #KeepTikTok #NoTikTokBan

Is Bytedance Owned TikTok App Being Banned in the US?
According to USAToday.com, the House of Representatives passed a bill related to TikTok on March 13, 2024, that could potentially lead to a ban or force the sale of the app. However, as of that date, which is today, the day that I'm uploading this video, there is no nationwide TikTok ban in effect.
The bill passed by the House would require the parent company of TikTok to sell the platform within 180 days to a buyer approved by the federal government, ensuring that the company no longer controls TikTok or its algorithms. This bill has not yet been signed into law by President Joe Biden, as it still needs approval from the Senate.
