Yeah. Think about it. If you’re English speaker user, sooner or later you get bombarded qith content from the US and people’s solutions for it are always the same : just don’t use insert social media app that much until the elections are over. But the drama bever stops
If someone is savvy enough to install from outside of the normal install mode especially on iOS, wouldn’t that imply that they are at least aware of a VPN?
There are lots of good free vpns out now, so it’s not unlikely. People that spend hours on it can follow a guide for 10 minutes. It will lower the amount of people on it for sure but anybody who wants to can bypass it easily. It will probably mean more for creators and stuff, and their us bank accounts maybe won’t be able to accept money from tk if they’re sanctioned.
More likely people will just install/update tiktok outside of Google play and apple store.
Rumor has it that tiktok will be unplayable with accounts linked to an American SIM card
That… would be interesting. I wonder how they would implement that, and what else they decide is worth that restriction. Curious to see it play out

Tiktok is going to be paradise without all the US problems in everybody else’s internet. It’s going to be the best social network ever
That is actually a really funny point I hadn’t thought of.

The app will stop working in the US. Doesn’t matter where you get it from.
Isn’t that what a VPN is for?

I can’t imagine anyone using a VPN just for TikTok. Not to mention free vpns are garbage and don’t work well.
