TikTok Users Rally Against Potential Ban: CEO Urges Support in Video Message

TikTok users have been expressing their concerns about a potential ban of the app in the US following President Biden’s recent decision to require Bytedance, the Chinese owner of TikTok, to sell the app to an American company. In response, Shou Chew, CEO of TikTok, addressed users in a video message, urging them to support the app and fight against a possible ban.

Chew emphasized that a ban would not only affect the app but also its users and their voices. His message has received overwhelming support from TikTok users who are determined to keep the platform alive. Many users have shared their appreciation for TikTok’s community feature, educational content and opportunities for self-expression.

Despite this outpouring of support from users, a ban is not imminent. Bytedance has several months to find a buyer for the app if the bill stands up in court. However, this incident highlights the strong and loyal community that has formed on TikTok over time. The impact of such an action would be felt by many people who use it as part of their daily lives.
