Angry TikTok users review-bombed Trump's official 2020 campaign app to the point where Apple had to reset the app's star rating, TechCrunch reports.
The review-bombing — where users post a flood of negative reviews — started in July, but intensified in August after Trump signed an executive order banning US companies from doing business with TikTok's parent company, ByteDance. Apple reset the star rating on August 14, a day before Trump signed a second executive order stipulating TikTok sell off its US operations.
The review-bombing picked up steam again after the US officially sanctioned TikTok with two executive orders. On, Trump barred US companies from doing business with TikTok's Chinese parent company ByteDance on the grounds that it poses a national security threat. Trump followed this up with a second executive order on August 15, saying TikTok must sell off its US business.TikTok activists have been a thorn in the Trump 2020 campaign's side before.
