As the U.S. Supreme Court prepares to hear arguments against Congress’ TikTok ban, the research tells us that nearly 64% of pre-teens have at least one social media account, flouting minimum age requirements and raising concerns about online safety and mental health impacts.

It’s recommended to prepare for a TikTok-free future as the deadline approaches.

The future of TikTok in the United States is uncertain as the Supreme Court considers a potential ban scheduled for January 19, 2025.

Users are advised to save their content before the app could vanish from app stores, with options to download videos individually or use third-party tools like Repurpose.io and myfaveTT for bulk downloads.

Triller has launched SaveMyTikToks.com to back up TikTok videos by uploading them to Triller, preparing for a potential ban that could impact the app’s 170 million U.S. users.

If the law is enacted, new users in the U.S. won’t be able to download the app, and existing users may see the app become obsolete over time. We will still have the app but for who knows how long.

However, users could potentially bypass the ban using virtual private networks (VPNs). Alternatives like YouTube Shorts and Instagram Reels are available for users seeking a replacement for TikTok.

I saw a report where social media influencers were already moving over to the other platforms…owned by China? I’m so confused why they have better security for our privacy than TikTok. All TikTok got from spying on me was spanx that were too tight.

We will wait and see what happens in 5 days.
