Yes it’s a bad thing. This legislation gives very broad power to the federal government to ban apps and platforms without any oversight. It might be TikTok today, but it could be Lemmy tomorrow.
No, the way the hearing went the judges said this case sets low precedent and it's not banned it's forced to divest.
Tiktok can remain with the exact same algorithm, same content it just can't be owned by ByteDance and closed source. The court said opening sourcing the algorithm and platform was also an option.
Why would the administration that pushed for the ban intervene?
Isn't this article obsolete since the Biden Admin said they weren't going to intervene because it's too close to the change of administration and that this is going to fall on the incoming administration to handle the TikTok sitch? I'll try and find the article I read to edit this comment with the source.
They can't intervene. It was decided in court. Trump might intervene because he doesn't care about following the law.

Dude, Biden is just going to take his old grandpa nap by Sunday and wake up just in time to hand the reigns over to Fuhrer Orange. There won't be enough time.
Oh no! Anyways
