Title asks it all. “Banning” TikTok – is that at all possible? I understand they can make it hard for folks to get the TikTok app by coercing companies to remove the app from the app stores, but that’s simply a minor inconvenience I would think – I can’t imagine anything can be removed from the internet, access prohibited, etc. What am I missing here?
In: Technology
They can ban the app you can disable access to their servers. You can still use VPN and side load the app (downloading it from somewhere instead of using the official storefront). The question is if it will remain popular enough if you put such technical barriers in place.
Personally I think TikTok is cancer but there will be a replacement. If the main concern is China itself rather then the content then I guess it helps.
