Burning Questions About the TikTok Ban, Answered

New York Post
Overview
President Trump has signed an executive order delaying the enforcement of a TikTok ban for 75 days while the Justice Department assesses national security concerns. The temporary suspension follows TikTok's brief shutdown due to a federal law requiring its parent company, ByteDance, to sell U.S. assets. Despite Trump's reassurances, legal experts question whether his executive authority can override Congressional legislation. Negotiations for a possible joint venture or sale of TikTok's U.S. operations are underway, with China signaling a willingness to cooperate, while concerns over data privacy and the app's operations remain unresolved.

- Trump’s directive to delay the TikTok ban reflects an effort to maintain U.S. user access while navigating national security concerns, potentially proving the viability of a compromise between U.S. oversight and continued operation of the app.
- Supporters acknowledge the national security risks but advocate for a joint venture involving U.S. oversight to ensure TikTok's operations can continue without unmitigated foreign control, rather than an outright ban.
- Trump's complex strategy shines a light on potential cooperative negotiations that may emerge with the Chinese government, suggesting an opportunity for progressive change in U.S.-China tech relationships, despite existing legal hurdles.
