China has warned that a proposed ban on TikTok would “come back to bite” the US, as lawmakers approved a bill that could lead to the app being banned.
The bill in the House of Representatives would force the Chinese-owned app to sever ties with China or become unavailable in the US.
US officials have long expressed concern about TikTok, citing potential national security risks.
TikTok’s owners have repeatedly rejected that it poses any threat.
