The shortest ban in history has got to be the 2025 TikTok ban. After being banned for about 15 hours, it was then turned back on and able to be used again by Americans.
The government banned TikTok for potential data collection and information for the China Communist party.
The students at Clear Springs high school took a poll and expressed their feelings towards the ban with 47 percent of them being sad, 41 percent of them not caring, and 12 percent of them being happy.
Fortunately, after less than a day of TikTok going dark, it was back online but only if you kept it downloaded, TikTok is still not available to download in the app store.
President Donald Trump’s 75-day extension for the ban ends on April 5th, meaning we don’t truly know whether it will come back to the app store.
