Overview
TikTok has resumed operations for U.S. users after President-elect Trump announced plans to extend the deadline for divestiture from its Chinese parent, ByteDance. Following a Supreme Court ruling, TikTok temporarily ceased operations, citing compliance with a law that mandates the sale or ban of the app due to national security concerns. Trump has suggested a potential joint ownership model to facilitate the app's continued operation. However, legal dissent continues among some Republican lawmakers against this proposed extension. The app remains unavailable for new downloads on major platforms, reflecting ongoing tensions surrounding U.S. tech policy.
