- The House of Representatives passed a bill that could ban TikTok if the popular app does not separate from its Chinese parent company ByteDance. The vote was bipartisan and passed in a landslide even after millions of users spoke out against the ban. NBC’s Savannah Sellers reports in this week’s Sunday Focus.

What about banning the China owned Rental properties in the US? I mean if they want to stay consistent in their argument.
Farmland, too
What would they do that if they also make profit via Taxes
Hypocrisy. They’re only doing it to Tik Tok because of one reason: Flow of Information ℹ️
Who’s they? It’s a national issue
i think china gets a lot more data and info from tiktok
If they ban TikTok, our country will be a amazing place.
I don't think so,I mean one app can't mean a lot to change a whole country
I swear life was so much better before this stupid app was made
Indeed no vandalized bathrooms no stolen cars no deaths over an app no annoying trending slang i miss having none of those
No it wasn't . Who decided that
@@jacksmith-mu3ee everyone
Life felt kinda better before any social media apps existed.
It was musicky first ppl slow
if they ban TikTok the world would be a better place
Easier said than done
How do
How so
No it won't
@@raymondchow8722 Why ? Nobody forced u to use it. Why should anyone be forced not to use it ?
Yes! End it! One less medium for all these attention seeking and clout chasing narcissists 😅
Donald Trump does use it though. LOL
@CollegeRodent so?
Donald tchump save us!
Yes ban it Biden please
@@isaiahpledge2538 Biden just signed up for it in February. LOL
Ban it 💣
Yes
yes
Based!
Yes
YESSIR
Sorry to the business owners it’s other places for that TikTok has too go.
The majority of tik tok users cant even vote
Why can't young people use Instagram reels, UA-cam shorts, or Facebook shorts?
Algorithm...and those are censored
Isnt tiktok also censored?@@amazingworld6805
Cause they are Biased
You should ask "Why don't young people use these apps?" It's not that they can't use them, it's that they don't want to use them as much as TikTok. And the answer is simple: it's because TikTok has a better algorithm to make people spend more time on the app. Clearly, all apps want their users to stay longer on their apps, but TikTok has won the competition because more young people spend their time on TikTok than the rest of these apps combined.
my criticize comments against Israel kept getting deleted on youtube, maybe thats why.
Please Do Not Ban Tik Tok! 😭 I enjoy the content I do and I enjoy sharing my passion! I'm so very devastated about this! PLEASE DON'T BAN TIK TOK!!!! 😭😭
I use tik tok everyday and i dont care if they ban it or not. But i really really hate that influencesers are even a thing, and i feel no sympathy for them.
Ban it!!!! Im loving this. I never downloaded the app never cared for it. Its honestly annoying what its doing to people. Ban itttttt
Fr
Why ban it ? That's violation of freedom of speech
@@jacksmith-mu3ee No it isn't. Maybe freedom of expression. But the right to free speech only protects you from the government Telling you That you can't say that. It doesn't protect you from company TOS or a ban of any platform deemed a threat to national security.
India said no to TikTok and launched their own version. We can do the same.
I understand trading and business is a primary way to maintain peace between feuding countries but we RELY on China too much. It’s dangerous, we need to support our own for a change!
Why? Wouldn’t it just be as worse?
Hmm... That would work. If making software was as simple as making chicken nuggets. If it were that easy, Snapchat or Myspace would still be relevant.
@@RobertJohnson-hp4gzyes.. bring mfg to America so the things you pay for become significantly more expensive. Sounds exactly what everyone wants when wages are low, and things are already so expensive. Great plan 🎉
USA has their own apps.
Tiktok is just way better and uncensored
America is supposed to be a free country? Well clearly not anymore I'm this case
Not when China is apparently collecting our data from the app
The United States has never been a free country, it only looks after the interests of people with power.
Nothing is truly free, everything has its price. The rich could not exploit the poor if the poor could not feed themselves.
I can do without it.
Use reels and UA-cam shorts then.
I have never used it and I turned out great
@@sstudio36it’s not the same
@@MrEaglescout3 why are u on UA-cam ?
Can you do without youtube ?
They need to ban it get rid of it please
So those tiktok users will move to other platforms to cause harms to it?
What will happen? People would sadly have to touch grass
Imagine being insecure of people having fun
I missed the days when our country was the land of the free.
Its never been the land of the free man, free for whom? White people with money??
it never has been...
Now tell me the US is not a dictatorship!
Why not CCP China allow Facebook , UA-cam and Google in China ? Same reason ie National security. Ban Tik Tok in USA is fair .
it's as simple as that. lol
At this point i am very much convinced that education is illegal in america. When you literally equate your success and livelihood to an app that's a potential national threat and yet you still see people protesting out in the road, man America at this point needs EDUCATION more than anything🤦♀️🤦♀️
yeah but if it is developed by Elon Musk instead China ，will you still support to ban it？
I think you need to focus on whatever country you come from. America has something called freedom of speech and open debate. People don't have to agree on everything just because the government says so.
@WillieFungo I think he’s more concerned about the idiocracy of TikTok ban protesters, rather than freedom of speech
@@TSJ99 Even if they are idiots, they have the right to express their opinions. This isn't Europe where people blindly agree with whatever the government says
@@WillieFungowhere in Europe do you see o r hear that? You guys in the US think are do special, when has the US been a free country? Maybe for the white rich and powerful… also, America is a whole continent not just the US, you guys aint special, and yes , tik tok should be banner
People have UA-cam, Bitchute and Rumble. There's no reason why people are so obsessed over the banning of TikTok.
Or likee and clapper
I've never installed that app. I've been against it since day one. Not to mention it's extremely gae.
Why ? Then delete UA-cam
Also, I find it funny how the only people who went out there, who wanted to keep TikTok where people who are making money off it
I mean isn't that true for anything..When it comes to earning? for many people tik tok is their livelihood.. especially struggling artists & musicians. Other streaming apps ain't benefitting them much.
How is that funny? If your job was laid off, you would be doing the same thing too.
@@doggoadexx2680 Why would you put your entire livelihood on a social media app... Did myspace and tumblr not teach anyone that these apps are temporary and their fame never lasts forever.
"this is going to hurt my business"...
Use UA-cam Shorts....???
Until youtube stops paying content creators and pulls a amazon
but they won't@@SaiquanCanty
Why ?
when people realize that this isn't a tiktok ban but a ban on information the world will work a lot better
It’s not a ban on information. You can just as easily get the information elsewhere.
@@josephknudsen2593how hurt are you about the threats of it being banned? It’s ok we won’t laugh
Why can the US make a better version ?
"you can't spy on our citizens, that's our job!"
This is what happens when you base your income on an app that you don't own....it can all be taken away.
Ima revisit this comment when the masses start getting laid off by companies they don’t own
You'd be visiting it every day then lol. @@JCapriDaVincifan
@@JCapriDaVincifan you would be revisiting this, every day, then, and I really appreciate the attention lol. In all seriousness, though, a TikToker job is similar to a normal job in someways, but it’s pretty different in a lot of ways. If I get laid off from a plumbing job, I can go get another plumbing job because I would have a tangible useful skill that a company could help me market for consumption. A tiktoker’s product is intangible and somewhat useless, and everything that is “produced” is owned by the company, everything that is produced is also produced on the company’s ‘canvas’, so to speak. When that company leaves, the canvas leaves, there is nothing for you to produce, and you can’t go get another TikTok job. The best you can do is start over on another platform.
@@JCapriDaVincifan Here is the difference. Getting laid off from a plumbing job means you can take your skillset elsewhere and find work, and produce something.
@@ohigh6im curious what these "influencers have to bring to the table now"
I am sorry to say this but
Tiktok should be banned
It is for our own good
i wish my country do the same
As written, any “website, desktop application, mobile application, or augmented or immersive technology application” that is “determined by the President to present a significant threat to the National Security of the United States” is covered.
So WHY can’t people instead use twitter, facebook and UA-cam to market their business? What s so special about tikjock
What would you do if they banned Coca Cola AND Pepsi?
Let’s say you drink it regularly and I say just change to drinking RC-Cola.
Its more popular and simply works better
@@bolbiitp7850I switched to diet kola when Pepsi and Coke got too expensive. It’s not that’s hard life goes on
@@WillieFungoyeah ok sure
they shouldn't ban apps, I don't like tiktok personally, but people should be able to download whatever they want on their phones
Ban it. Ban it to oblivion and forget that this app ever existed
Ban that Chinese stuff
Indeed My friend
Lol. U must be extremely wealthy.... Why don't they just ban Walmart, dollar Tree....
Why ? Racism
@@jacksmith-mu3ee Yes
Thankfully most of the people against the ban are too young to vote. Anyone old enough and serious about the app are those who need to get real jobs.
No they are not . And everyone had right to use it
Freedom of speech
And what about the people who can not get any jobs? I suppose having children was a waste of money.
Ban it!
Ban UA-camthen
@@jacksmith-mu3ee it's already banned in china
@@hw3006 out isn't
Ban it..
They wanna ban TikTok but not IPHONES???
BAN tik tok!: that will make America smarter again.
For that u have to ban fox news, youtube ,guns..
Tik tok will not be banned. Politicians are just using some leverage to pad their campaign funds because they know how important this is to the Chinese government.
If they ban it i can go to the bathroom and not worry about destroyed toilets and not have my car stolen if i get one OH LIFE COULD BE A DREAM!!! Someone ban this app
Ban the app button ✅
Attention Spans if Tiktok did get banned 📈📈📈📈📈📈
Yeah it’s awful. ban it please . The bullying on it is awful
Says the guy using UA-cam
People who are saying tiktok should have been gone are thinking of one side of tiktok which is dumb the whole app is important for not just businesses but indie artists. It’s not all about music and silly videos. Twitter and Instagram have been phased out for being the outdated way to share. With this gone Snapchat would be the only option and it isn’t as profitable.
You can literally do the SAME thing on fb and youtube with shorts and reels. It's all the same thing. UA-cam was the superior format anyways IMO.
so this is the truly purpose of US government,expeling overseas company,shame!😊
Why ? Why not tiktok ?
Who decided that for me
Crazy to see so many people fighting to have spyware on their phones.
They are paid off by Tik Tok
like our own government hasnt been doing that since day one of smart phones and most of the time its WITHOUT OUR CONSENT please, there's no difference, please find a better argument
Nah they should delete the bird for brain app.
I can’t wait for the ban, I’m excited
I dont even want to go back to youtube to post my videos!!!
What will happen if Tik tok get ban ? Hmmm maybe life moves on it’s not the end of the world😭
I swear, our life was so much ever until this stupid app was made
No it wasn't . We lost millions of people to shootings , pointless wars , random shootings and yeah we elected 2 war mongers
I ll take tiktok over last 20 years
I hope it’s get banned. It’s a brain rot and kids should learn to earn their money in a respectable way instead of dancing and tweaking.
Ok ban UA-cam . Lead by example
Us: Let's vote on minimum wage, affordable housing, the Mexican border?
Congress: LET'S BAN TIKTOK 😂
It is also the laws in USA that FBI can demand data from any company in or owned by USA. No? just ask Facebook, Google, and ....
worse app ever made
Honestly, the app can live on with third party app stores. Android allows apk downloads and you can sideboard apps with an iPhone. If the user base is dedicated to this platform. They can just do that
Good! There will be no more dangerous challenges.
If US creates their own TikTok us from Asia would surely follow because you guys create trends that are nice to watch.
Ban facebook!
Ban youtube!
Do it
I hope it gets banned.
Then leave UA-cam
You be wishing it didn't get banned
@@megamanmegamanmegamanmegam8725 Why?
@@jacksmith-mu3ee Why?
@@molerat80 same reason you want tiktok ban. Lead by example
Oh no, you will all have to get an actual job
Uh oh 😮
UA-camrs exists
I thought this was a trump thing.
I get that tik tok is fun etc. But to threaten suicide over it...come on 😂
Freedom of speech
BAN IT🎉🎉
You be wishing it didn't got banned
@@megamanmegamanmegamanmegam8725 no actually I do hope they do it that’s y I said ban it?
Sharks wanna eats sharks. They want to destroy the company to become the company
The tiktak algorithm is better than UA-cam.
but if they ban it then I HAVE TO DEAL WITH THE YT ALGORITHMS WHICH IS BULL!
Just use triller
BAN IT
Ban it yeah
Let's go back to living like we are in the early 90s.
"It wont be removed from your phones, just wouldn't update"
Sounds like an iPhone problem to me. Android users don't have to worry about this. same way Instagram favored iPhone cameras. how the tables have turned...
If there going to do something do it, i make a couple dollars on the app, im sick of the back and forth.
I hope so bandit from the US
Freedom is just a joke in the US. Why not include Instagram reels, UA-cam shorts, or Facebook shorts?
You do know China is allegedly using TikTok to spy on us right ?
Ask yourself why Chinese mainland citizens are not allowed to use American social media like Facebook or UA-cam. Now ask yourself why Americans are using a Chinese based app on the daily. Not to mention all Chinese companies bend over to their government and give up whatever’s is asked of them..did you even watch the video? How are people still asking why..
Tic toc alvarithm threatens small businesses. I can buy a pair of Jordan's valued at $600 for $80 because they're rare in the U.S. But in some factory in China have thousands and don't know what to do with them.
No excuse to ban it . Let people do what they want
Ban UA-cam . Lead by examples
Every country should ban and block all social media apps not state-owned by their own countries like Facebook and Instagram as well......
Then each country would quickly get culturally closed off from one another. North Korea already does this.
Was TikTok user for about 4 years, but after 2022 it became a place for russian and Chinese propaganda, I literally saw how separatists stream freely, tho I have used every single in-app security measure to avoid such unwanted content, and it still got through the random recommendations. All the report tickets were left without a reply. I think the reason is that TikTok owners can't handle non Chinese/English language videos or comments properly, thus this app is definitely dangerous. Uninstalling it was the best decision, I can't explain it, but after some "nostalgia" period I totally forgot about it and absolutely not interested in any TikTok videos anymore, I've got free from this addiction. I won't argue if TikToker is a real job or not, just saying that there are other social video services with the exactly the same functionality.
They’ll just come out with an American version
TikTok users are naïve. They only have to move to an other platform. UA-cam does offer this option of Short video in the same format as TikTok and X formerly Twitter now offer a video platform inthe same style as TikTok. So content creators do have multiple options and social platforms to continue their work.
That is why we have youtube start a UA-cam channel and tell ur followers to subscribe to u!
No, no. PASS the ban but have an American company buy it
No One cares, Get a Real job
@@KingBowser77766 a job is a job
How is it that we let social media to take our lives away I'm one in billion that's doesn't have a tictok I could care less about fckry app you people need REAL jobs become a lawyer or doctor or a construction worker or electrician😊😊 😊😊😊
If you're making money that is a "real" job. Are you slow?
Get rid of it
Save tiktok
How free market of you to ban anything that's not american. How are you any different from Iran or Noth Korea?
Did you miss the part where China is allegedly using it to spy on us?
Free market does not mean free data collection. That would fall under privacy invasion.
Can PBS purchase tik-tok?
Meanwhile, nobody can afford groceries house or cars
Free VPNs exist
And paid ones.
Correct me if I'm wrong, is google facebook and youtube are ban in china?
U.s. answer tiktok is not allowed in America. 😂
*Ban the app.*
Why are u on youtube ? Lead by example . Leave
Honestly put them to work and not just stay home and press record on a phone
Warmongers, hypocrites, now crooks.
The world will be at peace now let’s ban only fans
If TikTok gets banned and removed from the App stores, Android provides the means to let users install apps that are no longer in the App store, All it takes is downloading the apk file, and setting your android devices to allow unknown apps, Then you'll be able to use TikTok, However for Iphone users, They won't be able to install TikTok outside of the app store because Apple's own devices are part of a closed system, and don't allow apps outside of the app store to be installed, Unless they somehow jailbreak those phones, Which then allows people to install other apps not in the app store.
Download the apk file from where? Whoever stores the apk file and allows download will be susceptible to heavy fines by the attorney general!
@@UncleFordsInterrogatories There are a bunch of sites that hold the APK files for android apps, Every versions of them.
The law prohibits the maintenance of the specific files, such as for TikTok. Those sites will face investigation and large fines, rendering them unavailable.@@TigerClaw305
So what
That wont work. service providers will ban it
Don’t bandit is such a good app❤❤❤❤❤
Ban it
I hope it does get banned that would be great
Have people like you never learn anything about the vine invasion and even from tumblr either??
The American said: I don't want to hurt his wife, I just want her to own me🎉
If tik tok is banned ppl will just move to youtube shorts
i wont be crying with ill be laughing at ill keep to my word
I feel like it if TikTok gets banned, small businesses will FLOOD UA-cam Shorts.
No but WTO still rule against them
