TikTok might be in real big trouble. Over the last week, something unusual has happened on millions of smartphones in the United States. TikTok, which was once seemingly an everyday need for many users, has suddenly seen a giant rise in uninstalls, with figures of removals reportedly coming up by nearly 150%.
This shocking trend of uninstalling is happening when the app was meant to be entering a new era in America, after a big deal that changed control of its US operations into a majority-American ownership structure. The increase in people deleting TikTok has shocked the world because it runs counter to the platform's massive growth story in the country.
