      Notably the ban doesn’t kick in until after the election, after which it may not even be Biden’s problem. Maybe ByteDance will shut it down sooner. Maybe the next administration won’t follow through with the ban. 🤷

        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.
