Why Is TikTok Getting Banned?: The Controversy, Politics, and National Security Behind the Fight to Keep or Ban TikTok in the U.S.

Elena Ellsworth

Why Is TikTok Getting Banned? is a deep dive into the social, political, and legal whirlwind surrounding one of the most influential apps of our time. With over a billion active users, TikTok has transformed the way we create, share, and consume content. But behind its viral videos and global reach, serious questions about privacy, national security, and government control have surfaced, leading to growing calls for regulation-and even a potential ban.

This book takes you through the journey of TikTok's meteoric rise, the fierce debates about its data collection practices, and the legal battles that have ensnared the app. From President Trump's early efforts to take it down to the U.S. Supreme Court's 2025 ruling, it offers a comprehensive look at how TikTok became entangled in global politics and what it means for the future of social media and data privacy.

Through detailed analysis and real-world case studies, Why Is TikTok Getting Banned? examines the intersection of technology, law, and culture in an era of heightened digital sovereignty. It's a must-read for anyone interested in the future of online platforms, government intervention, and the global digital landscape.
