TikTok US Ban Row: Amid Tensions In US, Know Countries Where TikTok Is Banned Or Faces Restrictions [Video]

TikTok Ban News: A new legislation in the US could imply TikTok may get banned in the country soon. As per the newly approved law, the short-video platform can either sell the operations to an American firm or get banned in the US after a nine-month deadline. This update comes amid the claims of the US authorities that the app’s parent company ByteDance works under China’s influence and may share data of Americans with the Chinese government.

TikTok has repeatedly denied these claims and added it will appeal the bill. However, these are not the first sanctions on the app. TikTok has been banned in other countries in the past, including India. Here is a detailed look at the places where the short video platform is banned.
