Overview
TikTok has been re-enabled on the Apple App Store and Google Play Store after being removed due to a new U.S. law demanding its Chinese parent company, ByteDance, divest. On his first day in office, President Trump issued an executive order blocking immediate enforcement of this law for 75 days, providing time for potential buyers. The companies restored TikTok following assurances from the Justice Department that no penalties would arise from its reinstatement. TikTok continues to contest the national security concerns surrounding its Chinese ownership, claiming it poses no real threat.
