According to Pew Research, Americans are less supportive of banning TikTok than they were 18 months ago, with only 32% favoring a ban, down from 38% in late 2023 and 50% (aligning with Ipsos numbers) in March 2023, with half believing a ban is unlikely to happen.
Views on TikTok vary by political party affiliation of survey participants, with Republicans viewing TikTok as a threat to security and supporting a ban twice as much as Democrats.
However, support for a ban has decreased by nearly 20% among those who support both parties since March 2566, reflecting a shift in public sentiment. The survey involved 10,658 adults and was conducted between July 15th and August 4th.
