💨 Abstract

Albania has banned TikTok for a year due to concerns about youth violence and improper content. The ban, effective from Thursday, has caused difficulties for users accessing the app via web browsers. The Albanian government claims that social media is fueling violence in and outside schools. The decision follows similar bans in at least 20 other countries, primarily due to security concerns linked to TikTok owner ByteDance and its proximity to the Chinese government.
