Global digital rights advocates are watching to see if Congress acts, worried that other countries could follow suit with app bans of their own.

In my country every platform is pushing some kind of bias from the government.Government can ask to remove any kind of content from YouTube, Facebook, tiktok, etc. Especially political ones.

I have seen YouTube favoring one party in particular in their breaking news section even on a new account.

On a sidenote, its good for tiktok to be banned, I hate short form content.
