Original Note:
No, the TikTok bill does not give the president the power to shut down the internet. The bill would only restrict applications controlled by a foreign adversary as defined in Section 4872(d)(2) of Title 10, U.S. Code (this includes China, North Korea, Iran, and Russia). https://congress.gov/bill/118th-congress/house-bill/7521?s=2&r=1 https://docs.house.gov/billsthisweek/
