Part 3/6:
The ramifications of a shutdown would be profound, particularly for younger users who have integrated TikTok into their daily lives. Instead of simply disabling uploads, TikTok plans to completely restrict access to the app for U.S.-based users. When users attempt to log in, they would be met with a message redirecting them to a website explaining the ban, along with an option to download their data. This move is expected to create a significant stir among users who have come to rely on the platform for entertainment and self-expression.
