From India to UK, these countries have banned TikTok. See full list

Montana has become the first US state to ban Chinese-owned short videos app TikTiok. As per the decision, the US state makes it illegal for Google and Apple app stores to offer TikTok to users within the state. The ban is a part of efforts by the US to crackdown on the Bytedance-run app citing security concerns.

In March this year, Congress members had alleged that the Xi Jinping regime has a ‘golden share’ in TikTok’s parent company Bytedance. The Federal Bureau of Investigation’s director Chris Wray in November had claimed that TikTok poses a national security risk, adding that the Chinese companies are required to do whatever the Chinese regime wants them in terms of sharing information.

But the US is not the only country which has banned or is mulling to ban TikTok. In the past two-three years, several countries have banned the Chinese app over security concerns.
