John Oliver humorously addressed the potential TikTok ban, explaining that while Congress fears it as a national security risk, many find value and community within the app.
With 170 million active U.S. users, TikTok significantly shapes news consumption and small businesses, yet lawmakers remain adamant about its threats to national security.
Oliver highlighted the irony of Congress's strong stance against TikTok as a 'gun pointed at Americans' heads,' juxtaposed with their complex relationship with actual gun violence legislation.
Exploring TikTok's rise during the pandemic, Oliver noted it provided entertainment and connection when many were isolated, making its widespread use both understandable and significant.
