Cover illustration for POLITICO Europe: „Can TikTok’s cash shield it from the endgame?“

In March 2023, a ban of tech giant TikTok was discussed in the US government. For the cover of this issue, I wanted to highlight the limits of lobbying: three layers of money protect the smartphone/TikTok at the base. All of the bank notes have started to burn. While the dollars on top are highly affected, the Euro bill has not caught as much fire yet.
