MM145: Is TikTok Getting Banned and ByteDance's Next Moves
About this episode
The House of Representatives passed a bill on Wednesday that would require the TikTok owner ByteDance to sell the social media platform or face a total ban in the United States.
In this episode, we delve into the intricate web of national security implications, assess the likelihood of a ban, and speculate on who the frontrunners could be in a high-stakes acquisition.
We also unpack how Instagram has stealthily overtaken TikTok in downloads, with its significant growth and adaptation strategies and the reason why the outcome of this decision will have a major impact on the upcoming US election.
