Heartbroken Stephen Nedoroscik makes his feelings known as he expresses dejection over TikTok ban in the US

Stephen Nedoroscik expressed his dissent as he joined the growing outcry over the recent TikTok ban in the United States. The American gymnast became nostalgic as he recalled his memories of using the popular social media application.

TikTok played a huge role in helping athletes connect with their fans as well as build their own personal brand which would help them get sponsorships as well as advertisement contracts. Stephen Nedorosick has been very active on social media platforms like TikTok and Instagram where he would share updates about his life as well as fun moments from his training sessions for Dancing with the Stars with Rylee Arnold.

Nedoroscik had built a huge following on TikTok after the Paris Olympics as he would share glimpses of the quadrennial games with the different perspectives in which he would showcase fun moments with his teammates as well as glimpses of his practice sessions.

However, it all came to a standstill as the Chinese-owned social media company was officially banned in the US after the Supreme Court upheld the law requiring TikTok's parent company to divest its ownership or become inaccessible in the country.

The American gymnast took to social media to express his thoughts after TikTok became inaccessible and wrote:

"Back in the day we had TikTok."

Furthermore, he shared a story on Instagram and wrote:

"TikTok Nooooo"
