Half of Americans support a US government ban on TikTok, while 22% oppose the idea and more than a quarter are unsure, according to a Pew Research Center survey

But it also underscores that significant portions of the country, 28% of Americans, remain uncertain about a ban on TikTok, suggesting they do not have firm views on the matter.
Some 19% of TikTok users did express support for a US government ban, however. Those who know of TikTok’s connections to China are more than twice as likely to support a US government ban than those who are not aware of the link , according to the survey. The survey found, however, that most Americans — nearly two-thirds — are aware of TikTok’s China connection.
