Analysts have suggested it is "just matter of time" until the US ban on TikTok spreads.

Summary

Analysts predict a potential global ripple effect if the U.S. ban on TikTok remains, with allied nations likely to follow.

Experts cite the ousting of Chinese and Russian tech firms like Huawei and Kaspersky on national security grounds as a blueprint for how the ban could spread worldwide.

TikTok is already restricted on government devices in many countries, and the Five Eyes Alliance nations have issued warnings.

If the ban expands, TikTok risks losing its U.S. user base, curbing revenues and global reach, potentially accelerating its decline.

    I mean honestly with all the impending environmental catastrophes and likely energy crisis I personally feel like the only viable compute future we actually have is low-power high-latency devices.

    I’m glad I’m a command line junkie because there’s gonna be a future where I think that’s basically all that is left based on energy available and compute power.
