Total ban on Tiktok: 6 countries including Iran, Somalia, Nepal
The government of Nepal has completely banned the operation of Tiktok since last Monday. The government decided to shut down Tiktok for the time being because it was disrupting social harmony. The number of countries that completely ban Tiktok like in Nepal is very small. Nepal, India, Afghanistan, Iran, Kyrgyzstan and Somalia are among the countries that have completely banned TikTok.
Why did the government stop regulating Tiktok?
In 2019, India banned more than 50 Chinese apps, including PUBG and TikTok, due to geopolitical tensions. After the Taliban government came to Afghanistan, they banned TikTok in April 2022. The Iranian government banned TikTok last May, saying it was against the laws in force in the country.
Kyrgyzstan shut down TikTok on August 30, citing the platform's impact on children's mental development and overall development. Somalia also banned apps like Tiktok, Telegram, OnexBet last August.
