Many of the largest US social media companies have spent years copying TikTok’s features, which would make a shift away from the platform easier for its creators and users

On the eve of a high-profile TikTok hearing this week, the company shared that it now has more than 150 million US monthly active users. But after the heated, hours-long hearing, filled with lawmakers telling TikTok’s CEO the app should be banned, some may now be wondering where all those users will go next if the social network disappears. The answer: probably other big American tech platforms. . Instagram, for example, introduced its own short-form video tool in 2020 called Reels.

Washington Republican Rep. Cathy McMorris Rodgers, the chair of the House Energy and Commerce Committee, opened Thursday’s hearing by telling Shou: “Your platform should be banned.” As the hearing was taking place, House Speaker Kevin McCarthy said he supports legislation that would effectively ban TikTok and Secretary of State Antony Blinken said TikTok should be “ended one way or another.

I believe Vine was similar to Tiktok and was first to launch. I just don't know why it never took off like Tiktok did.

People are chasing the wrong path.

Jash3500 no way

First make a copy then destroy original. Convenient.

Where will TikTok users go if the app gets banned? Hopefully far, far away.

The comparison is a joke.... US companies have failed if that was their goal.

I think the political reasons may be strong against the platform, But the Chinese cyber espionage case makes the wonderful things scary when it comes to privacy and individual freedom .. TikTok America

US law will never be able to keep up with Big Tech, especially when we have these doofuses writing the laws. Also, how can we possibly monitor the millions of websites and phone apps that are spying on us?

They may go to hell for what I care.

'Only we can spy on you'

We will use vpn and modded apks

Hope American knockoffs will be as good as the Chinese original.

Mark Zuckerberg from FB is behind this push duh.

Migrate to China... Perhaps

please. those aren't features. They're a different way of doing stuff like I can eat an apple sitting down but also sitting upside down. It's the Chinese who steal the ip from elsewhere. They're the copycats. tiktok hasn't 'invented' anything. They just have a format that works.

I think we just want to be spied and destroyed by an American company instead of a Singaporean company. That’s all. Our leaders are out of touch and old to think banning TikTok will solve our societal issues.

If they banned Tiktok , that will put china and USA on the same page . USA should not talk about freedom anymore

Copying?If Chinese did it,you maybe say 'steal'.

The evil if extreme capitalism

the government can’t stop you from using tiktok. you can still use tiktok by downloading a VPN service app. Its $1 a month. VPN= virtual private network, it adds security & privacy to your phone. it hides your ip address when you go on the world wide web ur welcome! KhabyLame

All elonmusk would have to do is bring back PeriscopeCo (an twitter company). Periscope was TikTok before there was a TikTok, and very fun. You had people making real content and interacting with viewers(my favorite ones prank calls and a guy who did the NYC skyline)

it doesn’t matter if the gov prohibits tiktok. you can still use tiktok by downloading a VPN service app. It’s $1 a month. VPN= virtual private network. it adds security & privacy to your phone. it hides your ip address when you go on the world wide web. ur welcome! KhabyLame

Because it is not American company.

The fact that they say “their share of the app”

US is always stealing!

So the American social media companies copied tik tok to prepare themselves if something happened and tik tok was banned so that they could benefit themselves But remember its because of spying and childrens mental health that they are attacking tik tok ....

If it gets banned Biden will lose 20 million votes.

I feel like Facebook is more of a threat than tiktok.

Know thy enemy as thyself.

So we let them steal their intellectual project And that we just banned this sounds about right

copy cat

GRFOH LOL Fb TRYING to implement tiktok features is a complete joke & failure😂

CNN are communists

Deliberately deleting Facebook and Instagram if they ban TikTok.... Can't reward the company for buying Congress

Makes since considering Meta is lobbying for this 👀🤷🏼‍♂️

Of course US social media companies have spent years copying TikTok’s features and other Chinese technologies. It's how the US started its manufacturing industry in 1870 that caused the US 'Industrial Revolution'...was by stealing machine details and automation plans from Europe.

Anything which bothers the Chinese government, is something worth doing.

*this tweet sponsored by Meta™️

I'm disgusted that people want to say 'well yeah they're Chinese spyware but...' There's no BUT big enough.

No

I thought the propaganda was China is copying US technology which did not exist yet ..like when they copied the non USA existence of 5G..😂

We’ll make sure Meta tanks if it gets banned

Facebook, YouTube and instagram went all TikTok then lobby US govt to take out the competition.

Good luck I isn’t going back to meta

All you need do just is stop controlling people.

So... Twitter's down the tubes and Tik Tok is on its way out thanks to everyone wanting to ban it. What are independent businesses supposed to do? Some of the best marketing tools are getting shafted FFS.

So it not about the content and features but the origin of the company! It's a Chinese company - that's all

Mr. Guo is the first person in the world to eliminate the CCP in action,Free Mr. Guo‼️

Meta backed law makers

People go to reels on Instagram. Telling from experience coz the ban already happened here. At first they will install multiple apps from here and there but they will settle at reels.

They will use other apps as they have to continue their status of becoming stars on social media.

YouTube Shorts 😂

Really tough to beat the classics

It's all a cancer on our young.

TikTok CEO testifies before Congress for the first time | CNN BusinessUS lawmakers are set to grill TikTok's chief executive on Thursday, in a wide-ranging hearing that could not come at a more consequential moment for the embattled social media platform. The fear of China is the beginning of wisdom. China's relationship with the rest of the world commands respect and I see them rising more with great influence, affluence and impact. What a waste of time. Just ban the CCP. We are being attacked from within. Politicians in both parties have received generational wealth from the Communist Chinese Party. This needs to stop and hold to account the media that has supported the communalist Chinese by running cover and failing to report to Americans.

China says it 'firmly opposes' a potential forced sale of TikTok | CNN BusinessChina said it would “firmly oppose” any forced sale of TikTok, in its first direct response to demands by the Biden administration that the app’s Chinese owners sell their share of the company or face a ban in its most important market. Would seem weird that the Chinese government would have a position on a video app being important. Wonder why they care? Hmmmmm Ban it then. Is Tik Tokyo the ONLY app that's NOT headquartered in the USA or NOT owned by a Chinese company?

CNN's Quest: 'More Banks Are Going to Go out of Business' -- They're 'Stuffed' with Bonds“More banks are going to go out of business. More state and regional banks in the United States will need to be resolved — to use the technical phrase — they’ll be taken over, they’ll be wound up, they’ll be taken into ownership, all sorts of things.” Seeing CNN, 'One World' and Banks Collapsing in the same paragraph makes me think, 'this is their plan to centrally control the money' (and us) via a digital global currency.... Break the banks, bring in the globalist tyrants. Banks fail when democrats are in charge so the CEOs can get their bailouts. Free money opportunities.
