Will the TikTok social media platform be fully banned (removed from app stores and hosting services) in both the United States and the European Union before the end of 2027?

The Global TikTok Ban by 2027?

TikTok faces unprecedented regulatory and national security scrutiny in both the US and the EU due to its ownership by China-based ByteDance. While the EU has focused on data protection (DSA/DMA), the US has focused on national security, demanding a sale or facing a ban. A 'full ban' means removing the app from major stores and blocking service providers.

Security vs. Commerce

The majority 'Yes' vote reflects the intensity of the national security concerns—especially in the US—and the perceived unwillingness of ByteDance to fully divest or structurally separate its platform in a way that satisfies both governments. Given the 2027 deadline, the political momentum and looming legislative or executive action make a dual-jurisdictional ban highly possible if a complete corporate resolution (like a full sale) is not reached quickly.
