Marvel Snap goes offline in the United States in the wake of TikTok ban

Marvel Snap's US removal follows the TikTok ban. ByteDance, TikTok's parent company and also the parent company of Second Dinner (Marvel Snap's developer), has pulled several gaming titles, seemingly in protest. The future of Marvel Snap's US availability remains uncertain.

The TikTok ban, driven by concerns from US politicians about a "foreign adversary controlled application," has broader implications. It affects all apps published by ByteDance and its subsidiaries.

ByteDance's action could be interpreted as "malicious compliance," effectively leveraging the ban to generate negative public reaction. This strategy appears successful, as Marvel Snap fans are expressing outrage.

A Controversial Removal

The removal of Marvel Snap and other ByteDance apps is likely to continue fueling controversy. The political impact remains unclear, but the lack of advance warning from ByteDance suggests a deliberate attempt to incite fan backlash.
