The swift passage this week of legislation to force the sale or ban of TikTok was the first time a federal tech law has been approved in years. It appeared some momentum was building for further regulation.
Conditions for any momentum are likely to worsen before the November election, when legislators will try not to rock the boat. Silicon Valley's lobbying efforts stall regulatory actions.
The unique speed of TikTok legislation passage, driven by Biden administration and national security concerns, is unlikely to be repeated. Congressional leaders haven't pushed the momentum further.
