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.
