TikTok has been officially banned across the United States, impacting its 170 million users after the enforcement of a federal law aimed at protecting national security. The ban follows concerns about data privacy related to the app's Chinese ownership. Users are greeted with a message explaining the shutdown and expressing hope for a resolution from President Trump, who has hinted at a possible 90-day extension for TikTok to find a U.S. buyer. Meanwhile, alternative platforms are gaining traction as users seek new avenues for video sharing. The future of TikTok remains uncertain as the community waits for updates.
