The success of TikTok has brought attention to it. It’s connection to China has brought it under US scrutiny. Why does it need to be sold to a US company? Why does the US need to be in control of everything? Doesn’t that sound a bit “dictatorish”? In any case, it poses no immediate threat but I think people need to monitor what they consume on Social Media in general. I for one am tired of the mindless doom scroll.

Seems like social media is preying on young people and TikTok is specifically made to be as addictive and unproductive as possible.

Given this, do you still believe TikTok should be sold to a US company or otherwise be banned in the US? Get our 3 min daily newsletter on what matters in finance.
