    It was smart to delay the ban. The original bill would have banned it before the election - monumentally stupid! This, at least, delays the impact.

    People are paying attention, though, and TikTok has been buying ads to campaign against this law. It’s still going to have an impact.

      And Biden himself has a tiktok account that pumps out content.

      The whole thing is very cynical and weird.

        It’s a piss poor attempt to try control tiktok and ensure they play along. They don’t really want it banned, they just want to control the flow of information and it’s absolutely destroying the illusion of the first amendment!
