The concerns stem from the app\u2019s suspected ability to send data on over a hundred million Americans directly to the Chinese government.<\/p>\n<p>The House of Representatives bill passed last month, gives TikTok and ByteDance an ultimatum: <a href=\"https:\/\/wegotthiscovered.com\/social-media\/is-tiktok-publicly-traded\/\"  rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">either sell to a US company<\/a> or face \u2013 \u00a0what is pretty much, but not outright \u2013 \u00a0a ban in the country.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-when-could-we-see-the-beginning-of-the-end-of-tiktok-in-the-us\">When could we see the beginning of the end of TikTok in the US?<\/h2>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1200\" height=\"675\" src=\"https:\/\/wegotthiscovered.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/Design-sem-nome-2024-04-01T121637.602.png\" alt=\"TikTok CEO congress hearing montage\" class=\"wp-image-1678397\" srcset=\"https:\/\/wegotthiscovered.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/Design-sem-nome-2024-04-01T121637.602.png 1200w, https:\/\/wegotthiscovered.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/Design-sem-nome-2024-04-01T121637.602.png?resize=564,317 564w, https:\/\/wegotthiscovered.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/Design-sem-nome-2024-04-01T121637.602.png?resize=640,360 640w, https:\/\/wegotthiscovered.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/Design-sem-nome-2024-04-01T121637.602.png?resize=150,84 150w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Screengrabs via The Guardian (remixed by Margarida Bastos)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>During a congressional hearing, TikTok\u2019s CEO Shou Zi Chew \u2013 a Singaporean, not a Chinese national, something <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=5W-ufw5Z7ac\"  rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">some lawmakers had a hard time wrapping their heads around<\/a> \u2013 &nbsp;said the company has plans to maintain all US user data on servers managed by the Oracle Corporation, one of the largest software companies in the entire world.<\/p>\n<p>The CEO replied \u201cNot yet\u201d when questioned about applying for US citizenship which means he has some intention to do so. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cnbc.com\/2024\/03\/13\/house-passes-bill-that-could-lead-to-a-tiktok-ban-fight-shifts-to-the-senate.html\"  rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Chew has also been vocal about his dismay<\/a> with the vote taken by the House, having defended since the start that TikTok users\u2019 security has always come first and that user data has not been stored in China but in his native country of Singapore.<\/p>\n<p>A total of 66 representatives, including politicians as opposed as Representative <a href=\"https:\/\/wegotthiscovered.com\/tag\/alexandria-ocasio-cortez\/\"  rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/wegotthiscovered.com\/tag\/marjorie-taylor-greene\/\"  rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Marjorie Taylor Greene<\/a>, voted against the bill, whereas an overwhelming <a href=\"https:\/\/wegotthiscovered.com\/events\/who-voted-to-ban-tiktok\/\"  rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">349 voted in favor of it<\/a>. The <a href=\"https:\/\/wegotthiscovered.com\/social-media\/is-tiktok-getting-banned-in-the-us-the-bill-that-could-make-it-happen-explained\/\"  rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">bill called Protecting Americans from Foreign Adversary Controlled Applications Act<\/a>, which tries to massively curb the app&#8217;s influence and ability to collect data, now moves to the upper house, the Senate, where its fate is uncertain. <\/p>\n<p>The bill\u2019s authors have argued that it does not constitute a ban per se, but, if passed, app stores like Google\u2019s or Apple\u2019s would be legally barred from supporting TikTok on their platforms. TikTok has rejected the notion that it isn\u2019t a total ban and has actively taken steps to mobilize its users to help prevent the bill from taking place.<\/p>\n<p>President Joe Biden has confirmed he would sign the bill into law if it was approved. Interestingly, <a href=\"https:\/\/wegotthiscovered.com\/politics\/donald-trumps-sudden-love-affair-with-tiktok-proves-that-hes-also-flirting-with-desperation\/\"  rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">former President Donald Trump,<\/a> who had tried to take executive action against the app while in office, now expresses concern over the way the ban <a href=\"https:\/\/wegotthiscovered.com\/tech\/is-a-u-s-alternative-to-tiktok-in-development\/\"  rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">could increase the power of other social media companies<\/a> like Meta.<\/p>\n<p>If passed into law <a href=\"https:\/\/wegotthiscovered.com\/social-media\/will-china-sell-tiktok\/\"  rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">TikTok has 180 days to either sell<\/a> or face the bill\u2019s restrictions. That means, a ban could take place within half a year of President Biden putting down his signature and officializing it. Many of the bill&#8217;s critics have argued that 180 is too short of a period for reasonably enacting the wholesale. What eventually happens, and whether TikTok will be taken away from us or simply transform into something else, remains to be seen.<\/p>\n\n<h2><b>Commercials Cooperation Advertisements:<\/b><\/h2>\r\n<p><br>(1) IT Teacher IT Freelance<br> <\/p>\r\n<a href=https:\/\/itteacheritfreelance.hk\/wordpress><img src=http:\/\/gamefootballmobileanimeiphone.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/ITTeacherITFreelance-Website.png alt=IT\u96fb\u8166\u88dc\u7fd2 java\u88dc\u7fd2 \u70ba\u5927\u5bb6\u914d\u5c0d\u96fb\u8166\u88dc\u7fd2,IT freelance, \u79c1\u4eba\u8001\u5e2b, PHP\u88dc\u7fd2,CSS\u88dc\u7fd2,XML,Java\u88dc\u7fd2,MySQL\u88dc\u7fd2,graphic design\u88dc\u7fd2,\u4e2d\u5c0f\u5b78ICT\u88dc\u7fd2,\u4e00\u5c0d\u4e00\u79c1\u4eba\u88dc\u7fd2\u548cFreelance\u81ea\u7531\u5de5\u4f5c\u914d\u5c0d\u3002\/><\/a><p><a href=https:\/\/itteacheritfreelance.hk\/wordpress\/index.php\/findteacher>\u7acb\u523b\u8a3b\u518a\u53ca\u5831\u540d\u96fb\u8166\u88dc\u7fd2\u8ab2\u7a0b\u5427! <\/a><br>\r\n\r\n\u7535\u5b50\u8ba1\u7b97\u673a -\u6559\u80b2 -IT \u96fb\u8166\u73ed\u201d ( IT\u96fb\u8166\u88dc\u7fd2 ) \u63d0\u4f9b\u4e00\u500b\u65b9\u4fbf\u7684\u7535\u5b50\u8ba1\u7b97\u673a \u6559\u80b2\u5e73\u53f0, \u70ba\u5927\u5bb6\u914d\u5c0d\u4fe1\u606f\u6280\u672f, \u96fb\u8166 \u8001\u5e2b, IT freelance \u548c programming expert. \u8b93\u5927\u5bb6\u65b9\u4fbf\u5730\u5c31\u80fd\u627e\u5230\u5408\u9069\u7684\u96fb\u8166\u88dc\u7fd2, \u96fb\u8166\u73ed, \u5bb6\u6559, \u79c1\u4eba\u8001\u5e2b.  <br>\r\n\r\nWe are a education and information platform which you can find a IT private tutorial teacher or freelance. <br>\r\n\r\nAlso we provide different information about information technology, Computer, programming, mobile, Android, apple, game, movie, anime, animation\u2026 \r\n<\/p>\n<p><br>(2) ITSec<br> <\/p><a href=https:\/\/itsec.vip><img src=http:\/\/gamefootballmobileanimeiphone.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/ITSec-Main-Promotion-Image.png alt= https:\/\/itsec.vip\/\r\nSecure Your Computers from Cyber Threats and mitigate risks with professional services to defend Hackers.  \r\nITSec provide IT Security and Compliance Services, including IT Compliance Services, Risk Assessment, IT Audit, Security Assessment and Audit, ISO 27001 Consulting and Certification, GDPR Compliance Services, Privacy Impact Assessment (PIA), Penetration test, Ethical Hacking, Vulnerabilities scan, IT Consulting, Data Privacy Consulting, Data Protection Services, Information Security Consulting, Cyber Security Consulting, Network Security Audit, Security Awareness Training.\/><\/a> \r\n<br><br> \r\n<p><a href=https:\/\/itsec.vip>www.ITSec.vip<\/a> <br> <br> \r\n<p><a href=https:\/\/sraa.com.hk>www.Sraa.com.hk<\/a> <br> <br> \r\n<p><a href=https:\/\/itsec.hk>www.ITSec.hk<\/a> <br> <br> \r\n<p><a href=https:\/\/penetrationtest.hk>www.Penetrationtest.hk<\/a> <br> <br> \r\n<p><a href=https:\/\/itseceu.uk>www.ITSeceu.uk<\/a> <br> <br> \r\nSecure Your Computers from Cyber Threats and mitigate risks with professional services to defend Hackers. <br><br>\r\nITSec provide IT Security and Compliance Services, including IT Compliance Services, Risk Assessment, IT Audit, Security Assessment and Audit, ISO 27001 Consulting and Certification, GDPR Compliance Services, Privacy Impact Assessment (PIA), Penetration test, Ethical Hacking, Vulnerabilities scan, IT Consulting, Data Privacy Consulting, Data Protection Services, Information Security Consulting, Cyber Security Consulting, Network Security Audit, Security Awareness Training. \r\n<br><br>Contact us right away. <br><br>Email (Prefer using email to contact us): <br>SalesExecutive@ITSec.vip<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<div><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"type:primaryImage\" src=\"https:\/\/wegotthiscovered.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/Design-sem-nome-2024-04-01T120451.737.png\"><\/div>\n<p>It&#8217;s not a ban, they say.
