EMARKETER Mentions First Insight | Influencers Say Meta's Platforms Will Benefit Most if a US TikTok Ban Ensues

Key stat: A third (33%) of US influencers believe that if TikTok is sold or banned in the US next year, Facebook Reels will become the next major player in short-form video, per August 2024 data by First Insight. Instagram Reels is close, at 32%.

Beyond the chart:

  • Nearly all (96%) retailers are aware of the potential TikTok ban, yet only 28% have a specific contingency plan in place, per the same First Insight report.
  • Both public and regulatory support for a TikTok ban is down, compared with attitudes measured last year, per Pew Research.
