The impact of TikTok's ban in other countries could signal what's ahead for the U.S. | TechCrunch
Briefly

President Joe Biden signed a bill that would ban TikTok in the U.S. if its owner, ByteDance, doesn't sell the app. The bill mandates ByteDance to secure a deal within nine months, with a provision for a 90-day extension. After this period, app stores will be prohibited from listing TikTok.
Countries like India, Afghanistan, Uzbekistan, Senegal, and Somalia have already banned TikTok for various reasons, impacting ByteDance's operations, creators, and related startups. In India, the ban was due to national security concerns, Afghanistan saw a ban by the Taliban, while Senegal's ban followed dissent registration on TikTok.
