So—how did we get here?
1. Donald Trump gets punked by Gen Z TikTok users
2. In retaliation, he issues a ban by EO.
3. EO gets thrown out; Trump reissues ban by EO.
4 EO gets thrown out AGAIN, telling him Congress actually has to pass a law.

Sorry, TikTok isn’t available right now
A law banning TikTok has been enacted in the U.S. Unfortunately, that means you can’t use TikTok for now.
We are fortunate that President [elect] Trump has indicated that he will work with us on a solution to reinstate TikTok once he takes office. Please stay tuned!](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:felrvjku43ylzk7pp5lvjgrc/bafkreigs4wpmk3prjqc64k77uklf6zw4lwtz4cay65enznckms5sufzxku@jpeg)
