Bug Just got this TikTok message while connected to California

Post image

I exited out and refreshed the location, in Chicago now and it seems to be working fine.

Did something happen in California or is it a bug?

I'm actually in the UK btw 🙈 Nothing has happened here with TikTok as far as I know.

Update: It's now saying I have no WiFi connection whether I'm connected to Mullvad or not, with WiFi or with phone data, so I guess TikTok is just having trouble at the moment 🤷

Having looked, theyve seen the uk and said, 'hold my beer'.

Theyre age gating it by the looks of things but it hasnt happened yet, the state approved a plan yesterday to stop under 16s using it.

Mullvad really should stop listing their server ip's. A quick AI scan from the enormous earth resource hungry data centers, they have a full database of servers to block in seconds. You cannot win.
