The popular short-video-making platform TikTok is on the verge of being banned in the US due to concerns about data security and foreign influence. The Republican-controlled House will vote on a bill that will either prohibit the TikTok platform in the country or be divested from ByteDance. US President Joe Biden and former President Donald Trump support the bill called "Protecting Americans from Foreign Adversary Controlled Applications Act.". Amid these ongoing debate over the bill, Elon Musk has shared his concerns that the new law is not about TikTok but "censorship and government control!" The tech billionaire further added, "If it were just about TikTok, it would only cite "foreign control" as the issue, but it does not." OpenAI Calls Elon Musk’s Claims 'Incoherent': Report.
