U.S. President Joe Biden&#8216;s recent signing of legislation has thrown ByteDance&#8217;s TikTok into the spotlight, with CEO Shou Zi Chew saying <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/03/38001945/amid-us-china-tussle-tiktok-content-creators-worry-about-bread-and-butter-if-app-ban-succeeds">the platform will fight back.</a>
&#8220;Make no mistake, this is a ban, a ban on TikTok and a ban on you and your voice,&#8221; the CEO said in a two-minute&nbsp;<a href="https://www.tiktok.com/@tiktok/video/7361448925972155679" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">video</a>&nbsp;posted to TikTok&#8217;s main corporate account.

Chew&#8217;s statement, delivered Wednesday, April 24, continued: &#8220;Politicians may say otherwise. But don't get confused. Many who sponsored the bill admit a TikTok ban is their ultimate goal.&#8221;
The legislation, part of a $95 million foreign aid package supporting Israel and Ukraine, was widely supported by the U.S. Senate and the House of Representatives.
It gives ByteDance, TikTok&#8217;s parent company, 270 days to find new owners. If ByteDance fails to comply, TikTok faces removal from Apple Inc&#8217;s (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AAPL#NASDAQ">AAPL</a>) and Alphabet Inc&#8216;s (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GOOGL#NASDAQ">GOOGL</a>) Google app stores in the U.S., People magazine <a href="https://people.com/tiktok-ceo-says-we-arent-going-anywhere-biden-signs-potential-ban-into-law-8638226">reported. </a>
Additionally, there&#8217;s a provision for a three-month extension if a sale is in progress by the initial deadline.
<h1 class="wp-block-heading">ByteDance&#8217;s TikTok Fights Back Against Ban</h1>
TikTok&#8217;s uncertain future stems from discussions that began during the COVID-19 pandemic. Former President Donald Trump initially proposed banning the app in April 2020, a move later paused by the Biden administration in February 2021. Currently, TikTok boasts 170 million American users.
The legislation presents concerns about security, with fears that TikTok could be used for Chinese surveillance or data access. TikTok denies these allegations, and the Chinese government asserts there&#8217;s no evidence supporting claims of national security threats. 
TikTok plans to challenge the legislation, citing freedom of speech. In his video, Chew expressed confidence in their legal fight: &#8220;Rest assured, we aren&#8217;t going anywhere.&#8221; 
&#8220;We are confident and we will keep fighting for your rights in the courts&#8230; The facts and the U.S. Constitution are on our side, and we expect to prevail again,&#8221; he added. 
<h1 class="wp-block-heading">Can I Keep Using TikTok? Exploring The Ban&#8217;s Impact</h1>
Don&#8217;t worry, TikTok won&#8217;t just vanish from your phone overnight.
It&#8217;s likely to be at least a year before any ban takes effect, with potential legal challenges possibly extending the timeline further. While TikTok has succeeded in court before, this marks a new challenge against federal legislation.
Concerning your TikTok app, it&#8217;s unlikely to disappear from your phone immediately. However, if the ban goes into effect it may vanish from Apple and Google&#8217;s app stores, meaning no new downloads, updates, or fixes, as <a href="https://www.nbcnewyork.com/news/national-international/tiktok-ban-us-what-to-know/5350848/#:~:text=No%2C%20TikTok%20will%20not%20suddenly%20disappear%20from%20your%20phone.">per</a> NBC New York. 
Over time, this could pose security risks and usability challenges.
