Last Wednesday, the 1st, the Committee on Foreign Relations of the House of the United States advanced with the bill that prohibits access to the TikTok in the country. Joe Biden, the president, would have the opportunity to make it impossible for 100 million Americans to be on the app. Chinese politics was the main issue for the Republicans to be in favor of the ban.

After approval, it is still unclear how TikTok will be banned in the country. House Speaker Kevin McCarthy did not respond to questions raised about the case.
It is known that, despite the law allowing for a ban aimed at national security issues, TikTok could be released again in the next term if Biden is not re-elected.
There were more than four hours of debates the day before and 11 bills presented with China at the forefront of the agenda. Coincidentally, Republicans and Democrats were in common agreement with almost all agendas.
The law aimed at banning TikTok, however, was passed by the decision of the Republicans, with 24 to 16, with no votes from the Democrats.
This, therefore, is not an isolated moment in history between the two countries, as the USA has been watching TikTok for a long time. In 2020, ByteDance, the company that controls TikTok, said it was creating strategies to dismember TikTok in order not to enact the closure of functions in the country.
TikTok was banned during the Trump administration, but it did not go ahead due to the former president's defeat by Biden.
Taking office, Joe Biden continued the pressure against the application, revoking questions from previous governments and adding news about the ban to the list. Therefore, rumors of bans in the current government follow and clearer chances may be close.
