46% : Then in 2021, President Biden issued a new executive order, saying ByteDance "continues to threaten the national security, foreign policy and economy of the United States," and charging the Commerce Department with reviewing and evaluating the risks TikTok and other apps may present.
40% : Trump issued a national emergency related to TikTok in August 2020, saying the app gave Beijing access to "Americans' personal and proprietary information - potentially allowing China to track the locations of federal employees and contractors, build dossiers of personal information for blackmail, and conduct corporate espionage.
30% : Trump told NBC News he expects to "most likely" give TikTok a 90-day reprieve from a potential ban once he's taken office on Monday.
29% : Why does the U.S. government want to ban TikTok?Ironically, it's Trump who called for a ban on TikTok in his first term over concerns it gathered data on U.S. citizens that could be shared with the Chinese government.
24% : The Biden administration has said it doesn't plan to enforce the ban and Trump has said he would look for a way to keep TikTok going, including perhaps finding a buyer or someone to operate TikTok's U.S. operations.
