The saga of TikTok and its security issues has taken yet another turn. The app faces a nation-wide ban in the US!
Kansas Governor Laura Kellya ban on TikTok on state government devices due to concerns about national security and data mining. Kelly stated that TikTok could potentially make users' data available to the Chinese Communist Party.
The app has already been banned by 15 other states, but Kansas is among the first Democratic states to implement such a ban. TikTok spokesperson Jamal Brown called the ban"politically motivated" and said it was based on"unfounded falsehoods." TikTok is the second most popular domain on the internet right now, after Google. It has grown quickly and now has more users than Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, and Snapchat combined.
