Now that the US House has passed a bill to require TikTok owner Bytedance to sell the social media platform, the US Senate will have the final say. President Biden has already said he would sign the bill into law should it pass Congress. Supporters say that's required to stop the Chinese Communist Party's surveillance of and influence on Americans.
The law could result in the banning of TikTok in America if Bytedance refuses to sell it to an approved buyer.
Critics, including FreeThePeople.com's Matt Kibbe, say the idea is a violation of Americans' rights to free speech and free association and is also an overreach of government into the free market. In this segment, Kibbe responds to the push for the regulation and possible ban.
