WASHINGTON (AP) — The House passed legislation Saturday that would ban TikTok in
the United States if the popular social media platform’s China-based owner
doesn’t sell its stake within a year, but don’t expect the app to go away
anytime soon.
The decision by House Republicans to include TikTok as part of a larger foreign
aid package, a priority for President Joe Biden with broad congressional support
for Ukraine and Israel, fast-tracked the ban after an earlier version had
stalled in the Senate. A standalone bill with a shorter, six-month selling
deadline passed the House in March by an overwhelming bipartisan vote as both
Democrats and Republicans voiced national security concerns about the app’s
owner, the Chinese technology firm ByteDance Ltd.
The modified measure, passed by a 360-58 vote, now goes to the Senate after
negotiations that lengthened the timeline for the company to sell to nine
months, with a possible additional three months if a sale is in progress.

What to know about Elon Musk’s ‘free speech’ feud with a Brazilian judge
Legal challenges could extend that timeline even further. The company has
indicated that it would likely go to court to try and block the law if it
passes, arguing it would deprive the app’s millions of users of their First
Amendment rights.
TikTok has lobbied hard against the legislation, pushing the app’s 170 million
U.S. users — many of whom are young — to call Congress and voice opposition. But
the ferocity of the pushback angered lawmakers on Capitol Hill, where there is
broad concern about Chinese threats to the U.S. and where few members use the
platform themselves.
“We will not stop fighting and advocating for you,” TikTok CEO Shou Zi Chew said
in a video that was posted on the platform last month and directed toward the
app’s users. “We will continue to do all we can, including exercising our legal
rights, to protect this amazing platform that we have built with you.”
The bill’s quick path through Congress is extraordinary because it targets one
company and because Congress has taken a hands-off approach to tech regulation
for decades. Lawmakers had failed to act despite efforts to protect children
online, safeguard users’ privacy and make companies more liable for content
posted on their platforms, among other measures. But the TikTok ban reflects
widespread concerns from lawmakers about China.
Members of both parties, along with intelligence officials, have worried that
Chinese authorities could force ByteDance to hand over American user data or
direct the company to suppress or boost TikTok content favorable to its
interests. TikTok has denied assertions that it could be used as a tool of the
Chinese government and has said it has not shared U.S. user data with Chinese
authorities.
The U.S. government has not publicly provided evidence that shows TikTok shared
U.S. user data with the Chinese government or tinkered with the company’s
popular algorithm, which influences what Americans see.
The company has good reason to think a legal challenge could be successful,
having seen some success in previous legal fights over its operations in the
U.S.. In November, a federal judge blocked a Montana law that would ban TikTok
use across the state after the company and five content creators who use the
platform sued.
In 2020, federal courts blocked an executive order issued by then-President
Donald Trump to ban TikTok after the company sued on the grounds that the order
violated free speech and due process rights. His administration brokered a deal
that would have had U.S. corporations Oracle and Walmart take a large stake in
TikTok. The sale never went through for a number of reasons; one was China,
which imposed stricter export controls on its technology providers.
Dozens of states and the federal government have put in place TikTok bans on
government devices. Texas’ ban was challenged last year by The Knight First
Amendment Institute at Columbia University, which argued in a lawsuit that the
policy was impeding academic freedom because it extended to public universities.
In December, a federal judge ruled in favor of the state.
Organizations such as the American Civil Liberties Union have backed the app.
“Congress cannot take away the rights of over 170 million Americans who use
TikTok to express themselves, engage in political advocacy, and access
information from around the world,” said Jenna Leventoff, a lawyer for the
group.
Since mid-March, TikTok has spent $5 million on TV ads opposing the legislation,
according to AdImpact, an advertising tracking firm. The ads have included a
range of content creators, including a nun, extolling the positive impacts of
the platform on their lives and arguing a ban would trample on the First
Amendment. The company has also encouraged its users to contact Congress, and
some lawmakers have received profanity-laced calls.
“It is unfortunate that the House of Representatives is using the cover of
important foreign and humanitarian assistance to once again jam through a ban
bill that would trample the free speech rights of 170 million Americans,
devastate 7 million businesses, and shutter a platform that contributes $24
billion to the U.S. economy, annually,” said Alex Haurek, a spokesman for the
company.
California Rep. Ro Khanna, a Democrat, voted against the legislation. He said he
thinks there could have been less restrictive ways to go after the company that
wouldn’t result in a total ban or threaten free speech.
“I think it’s not going to be well received,” Khanna said. “It’s a sign of the
Beltway being out of touch with where voters are.”
Nadya Okamoto, a content creator who has roughly 4 million followers on TikTok,
said she has been having conversations with other creators who are experiencing
“so much anger and anxiety” about the bill and how it’s going to impact their
lives. The 26-year-old, whose company “August” sells menstrual products and is
known for her advocacy around destigmatizing menstrual periods, makes most of
her income from TikTok.
“This is going to have real repercussions,” she said.
