Anonymous Coward (OP) User ID: 67211204 Netherlands 08/01/2020 10:11 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | TRUMP SAYS HE WILL BAN TIKTOK IN THE US Donald Trump has said that he will ban TikTok in the US. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 67211204 The move could go into effect as soon as today, he told reporters. Speaking from Air Force One as he returned from Florida, he said: "As far as TikTok is concerned, we're banning them from the United States." The president said he could use emergency economic powers or an executive order to enforce the action, insisting, "I have that authority" before adding: "It's going to be signed tomorrow." The US has repeatedly indicated that it could ban the app, or undertake other measures, amid escalating tensions with China. While TikTok has insisted that all of its data is stored outside China and has denied rumours of its close relationship with the Chinese government, the Trump administration has insisted that the widespread use of the app could put citizens at risk. TikTok users were also held to be partly responsible for the low turnout at the president's recent rally in Tulsa. While it is unclear how much of a difference those people actually made, reports at the time suggested that posts had encouraged users to sign up for tickets so that they were unavailable to supporters who actually intended to go.

Or he's just fearing that CIA would lose its influence with its mass surveillance, twitter, facebook, instagram and other social platform programs? or he's just butthurted because of Tulsa epic-fail? |
