This could end up being an interesting case study for the "that app is so simple, I could build it in a weekend" crowd.
People ask why Elon Musk is willing to pay so much for Twitter when the software could be replicated at much less expense - the software isn't the point, the network effect is. It doesn't matter how good your Twitter clone is, if no one is using it, then no one will use it.
If TikTok is banned (or can't grow in the US due to being removed from app stores), there's actually an opening for a clone. I wonder what sort of TikTok clone would succeed - one backed by existing social media companies? One that's just like TikTok, or one that introduces some killer new feature?
