Why was Tik Tok banned?

Tiktok is an application which can be downloaded on Google play store. The video app is owned by a Chinese with about hundreds of millions users. India happens to be the country with the highest Tiktok users. The app has received a lot of criticisms from a lot of people and particularly the Indian government following its illegal operation which includes creating and sharing of pornographic materials on the app.

The app has been banned in some countries like the United States for illegally collecting information from children and also for sharing pornographic materials. A court in India has also banned the use of Tiktok following endless criticisms by people who are raising concerns about the possible implications of the app on their children. However, the court ruling has taken effect as the app can no longer be seen on Google play store, but you can only use it if you already have the app on your phone.
