TikTok Ban Threats and Spying Allegations: What You Need to Know.

TL;DR Summary
The possibility of a nationwide TikTok ban in the US is drawing growing support in Washington, D.C. However, there are scant details on how the policy would be implemented and what it would mean for the app's more than 100 million US-based users. A TikTok ban could take effect in a variety of ways, including its forced removal from Apple and Google app stores or an outright block of access by internet service providers. While dedicated users would find ways to circumvent any government crackdown, the app would suffer a dramatic decline in popularity and eventually be rendered defunct.
