TikTok Ban edit

I found a source saying banning TikTok could violate the First Amendment in the United States Constitution. https://www.nytimes.com/2023/03/24/opinion/tiktok-ban-first-amendment.html Cwater1 (talk) 14:48, 30 March 2023 (UTC)Reply

I think the article should contain more information on U.S. China relations leading up to this point in the TikTok ban. — Preceding unsigned comment added by StudentCSCI5125 (talk • contribs) 00:30, 2 April 2023 (UTC)Reply

If you find one or more source(s) claiming that the relations are influencing the ban. Cwater1 (talk) 14:38, 4 September 2023 (UTC)Reply

OompahOomaph (talk) 22:49, 3 April 2023 (UTC)I feel like we could use more information about what will happen next and how TikTok being banned will affect users.Reply

For now more information is linked at the top of the article. CurryCity (talk) 05:39, 3 August 2023 (UTC)Reply

The first paragraph should be removed or moved to the parent article because it is primarily about NATO. The second paragraph involves a duplicated case that is already covered in the parent article. CurryCity (talk) 07:13, 1 August 2023 (UTC)Reply

Yeah, both paragraphs seem off-topic in this article. Probes and subpoenas are not restrictions. —Mx. Granger (talk · contribs) 13:24, 1 August 2023 (UTC)Reply

There has been a recent bill passed by the US Lawmakers, which will force ByteDance 165 days to divest, otherwise it will be banned. Not sure if it counts as a restriction or not. Sapphirepanda23 (talk) 21:31, 9 March 2024 (UTC)Reply

Is it the RESTRICT Act? Doesn't appear any votes have taken place yet: https://www.congress.gov/bill/118th-congress/senate-bill/686/all-actions –Novem Linguae (talk) 21:40, 9 March 2024 (UTC)Reply

Not sure to be really honest, I got information from BBC and CBS news, https://www.cbsnews.com/news/tiktok-bill-ban-divest-from-bytedance-parent-company/ Sapphirepanda23 (talk) 07:54, 10 March 2024 (UTC)Reply
