On Saturday, the House of Representatives passed a set of bills that includes a mandate demanding that China's Bytedance, TikTok's parent company, sell the social video platform over national security concerns.
Lawmakers see the bill as a protective measure to safeguard Americans' personal data by preventing the Chinese government from accessing it, with over 170 million Americans using TikTok.
Critics view the bill as infringing on First Amendment rights and younger generations fear a future without TikTok, while businesses relying on the platform worry about the impact on their operations.
