Please no...

Trump's TikTok"ban" is actually a lot more vague than that. The executive order prohibits"transactions" between TikTok and the United States, which is kind of confusing, and has not been explained further. It's possible that the app would disappear from the app store, but existing users might be able to stay logged in if they've already downloaded it. The government will hopefully issue more clarification as the 45-day countdown continues.

Twitter is reportedly also interested, although it's considerably less solvent. Apple has stated that it won't make a bid for TikTok, and Facebook, arguably the company most threatened by the app's extreme popularity amongst teens, doesn't need to. It already has the copycat feature Reels, which we'll get to in a minute.What do TikTokers think?

The #savetiktok hashtag has 953.6M views and counting. Most users didn't take Trump's threats seriously until this past weekend... mainly because the whole point of TikTok is not taking shit seriously. Most of the app's big influencers are yet to issue any comment, but maybe that will change in coming days, especially if ByteDance really does go ahead and file that lawsuit.Reels seems... fine.

It's hard to predict what will happen. The Stories v Snapchat wars, littered with little yellow ghost corpses, proved that Instagram knows how to keep its user base locked into a single interface rather than turning to third party apps for video content. But not everything Instagram touches turns to gold: while Stories rule, I've literally never used Instagram TV. Have you?
