The 17 best TikToks of all time to watch before the potential ban
Come January 19, it’s possible the United States will be without one of the most popular social media platforms as a nationwide ban of TikTok could go into effect. Launched in September of 2016, TikTok has become a place for viral videos, influencers, dance trends, cooking tutorials, movie reviews and really anything you can think of.
Unless someone intervenes on the governmental level, it looks like it could be the end of TikTok in the United States. While the concerns around misinformation and data security are fair, it was also a site that provided endless hours of entertainment and laughs.
Here are some of our all-time favorite TikTok videos that will carry on post-ban.
WARNING: Some of the videos might include some language that is NSFW.
