Biden refused to enforce the ban[1], so I really doubt democrats would enforce it 4 years later if they came to power again. The issue isn't very partisan, libe

  Biden declined to initiate legal proceedings in the last 24 hours of his administration... the only notable thing about that is that it isn't notable. It's hardly going to control what happens 4 years from now. I agree the issue isn't particularly partisan. Both parties were in favour of the ban. The process was started by Trump, continued by Biden, passed by the vast majority of both parties in the house (with republicans more in favor the democrats [1]), and then at the last second both parties realized that it was going to be wildly unpopular... But who knows how political winds are blowing 4 years from now, or 1 year from now, there's every chance it's now something either or both sides wants to take tech companies to task for not complying with. Or they just want to enforce the rule of law and don't care about TikTok. Or they just don't like tech companies.
