TikTok Is Facing Legal Backlash Around the World
Briefly

In recent weeks, TikTok has faced significant scrutiny globally, facing fines in Russia, a ban in Albania, and challenges in the U.S. regarding its operations.
The Albanian Prime Minister, Edi Rama, emphasized the stakes, stating, "Either TikTok protects the children of Albania or Albania will protect its children from TikTok," highlighting the dire consequences of online influences.
