За ТикТок обещают 20 лет тюрьмы
The ban's criminal penalties, which include a fine up to a million dollar and/or imprisonment of up to 20 years, has caused some alarm among the bill's observers, who have questioned whether some TikTok fanatics might face jail time for using a Virtual Private Network (VPN) to get around the ban and access the app.
"Under the terms of the bill, someone must be engaged in 'sabotage or subversion' of communications technology in the U.S., causing 'catastrophic effects' on U.S. critical infrastructure, or 'interfering in, or altering the result' of a federal election in order for criminal penalties to apply," Warner's communications director, Rachel Cohen, said.

То есть, сажать на 20 лет будут не юзеров (на сколько их будут сажать закон умалчивает, но и отказа от их наказания не упомянуто), а тех, кто будет организовать VPN, поскольку потом можно всегда упомянуть неуловимых русских хакеров которые "влияли на выборы" в США.
