The social media app was banned on UK government officials devices only this month, in a sway of new measures  to restrict data collection. The caution from both the UK & US governments is trickling into UK society, with many parents concerned how the Chinese based-app is impacting their children.

The UK is known for following in America’s political footsteps, so any legislative decision made in the houses of congress could have  ripple effect not only in the UK, but across western countries.

Commentary

Liam Solomon, PR Manager at Casinos En Ligne commented on the data:

“TikTok has seen a dominant rise to becoming the number one social media app globally with ,hundreds of millions downloads. However, concerns surrounding data privacy and child safety may cause the app to be banned in the US.

By a sizable margin, it seems parents in the UK would embrace a TikTok ban, to help protect children from the supposed dangers of the app.”
