Not yet banned. It has been given 1 year to be sold ama waondolewe. The US wants to own that company. Banning it is not a solution.

MIGRANT CRISIS. STUNNING NEW
(NewsNation) — A surge of Chinese migrants continue crossing the southern U.S. border, many of whom are seeking asylum due to increasing economic instability and an authoritarian regime in China.
Border agents in the San Diego Sector have encountered more than 24,000 Chinese nationals so far this fiscal year, more than double the tally from last fiscal year, according to Customs and Border Protection (CBP) data.
Nationally, CBP data indicates nearly 42,000 Chinese nationals have entered the U.S. illegally this fiscal year that began in October, nearing the record total number of 52,700 encounters in 2023.
About half of those migrants were stopped along the southern U.S. border by Border Patrol agents, and most sought asylum.
Why are Chinese migrants fastest-growing group at southern border?
In a statement to NewsNation, Chinese Embassy spokesperson Liu Pengyu said that the “Chinese government has always opposed illegal immigration and adopted various measures to stop illegal exits and severely crack down on criminals who organize smuggling and engage in illegal immigration activities.”

Pengyu added that “China has had good cooperation with some countries on the issue of repatriation of illegal immigrants and is willing to continue to strengthen cooperation with relevant countries on this issue.”

Wanasema elite jews through IAPAC wako nyuma ya hii mambo because young Americans wanasupport Palestine more than Israel.
No worries. Another platform will emerge and the truth will come out.
You can’t hide the truth forever.
You want to be spoonfed? Hata vitu za yuess? Huna intelligence ya vitu ya yuess?

America has about 300m people and they shouldnt be dictating how the other 7 billion people should live. So they can ban tiktok but the other 7 billion will still move on with tiktok.

As TikTok faces a potential ban in the US, was the app already on its way out?
Top apps wax and wane, and content creators notice
As with all trends, the hot social network of the moment tends to wax and wane (remember Clubhouse?). Facebook – the original top dog of social media and still the biggest by user numbers – has seen young users flee in recent years, despite overall growth bringing monthly active users to 3 billion in 2023.
But unlike Meta, TikTok is not a public company – which means we may never get granular insight into its user metrics, which have surely evolved over the past few years amid political turmoil and changes to the platform. The company has recently stated that the proposed ban would affect more than 170 million monthly active users in the US.
Supporters of TikTok rally in Washington DC
Creators – especially those who get most of their income from social media – are hyper-aware of fluctuations in the app of the moment, said Brooke Erin Duffy, associate professor of communication at Cornell University. From the time TikTok was first threatened with a ban by Donald Trump in 2020, major users of the platform raised the example of Vine – the now defunct short-form video platform – as a cautionary tale.
“They are aware of the ability of an entire platform to vanish with very little notice,” she said. “[The potential Trump ban] was four years ago, and since then there has been an ebb and flow of panic about the future among creators.”
With that in mind, a number of creators who grew a large audience on TikTok have been diversifying, trying to migrate their fanbases to other platforms in case TikTok disappears. Others have grown frustrated with the algorithm, reporting wildly fluctuating TikTok views and impressions for their videos. Gaming influencer DejaTwo said TikTok has been “very frustrating lately” in a recent post explaining why they believe influencers are leaving the platform. “The only reason I still use TikTok is because of brand loyalty,” they said.
The unwelcome arrival of the TikTok Shop
In September 2023, TikTok launched its TikTok Shop feature – an algorithm-driven in-app shopping experience in which users can buy products directly hawked by creators.
The feature has a number of benefits for TikTok: it boosts monetization of its highly engaged audience, allowing users to make purchases without ever leaving the platform. Integrating shopping will also allow TikTok to compete with platforms like Instagram and Facebook, which have long integrated shopping capabilities, as well as with Chinese e-commerce sites like Temu and Shein, which promise cheap abundance. It is also part of a broader effort from TikTok to move away from politicized videos and other content that may jeopardize its tenuous position with regulators, many of whom believe it has been boosting pro-Palestinian content despite all evidence to the contrary.
Some users have pushed back against the shop’s new omnipresence on the app, often characterized as a kind of QVC shopping channel for gen Z users, stating that it takes away from the fun, unique and interesting original content that earned TikTok its popularity.
