The potential personal and political fallout of a TikTok ban

Season 2023 Episode 82 | 12m 29s

TikTok is the fastest growing app on the planet with more than 150 million monthly users in the U.S. alone.

Laura Barrón-López looks into the potential personal, political and international fallout should the government outlaw the platform.
