Comment on How is TikTok being blocked in the US?

Why do they care enough to listen? It isn’t a US based company. I understand if they remove their US servers, but why do they have to block IPs?
Can’t US users just get a VPN? Is this whole situation a ploy to ban VPNs and privacy?

Yes, they can just use a VPN. I’ve told this to several people in my life and many of them write that off as being too difficult to figure out. I even gave my VPN un & pw to a family member with a link to download the app and they still just said “nah.”
Some people just can’t be bothered to try, I guess.
