I don’t doubt that TikTok would eventually post an apk on its website after being banned from app stores, so app should be a non-issue too.

Could be the beginning of a nationwide firewall type system like they have in China. I feel like most current methods of blocking an app could be pretty easily circumvented.
Beyond the government sniffing every packet and blocking TikTok-related ones, I’m not sure how else they could effectively block the app.
And that’s a very bad path to start down.
