TIKTOK before the out: Trump could prohibit a ban!

Washington D.C., USA - A controversial law signed by US President Joe Biden in April forces the popular Videoplattform TIKTOK to end its connections to the Chinese parent company bytedance. Otherwise, the platform will face the ban in the United States from January 19, 2025. According to the US Ministry of Justice, Tikok is a potential danger to national security due to its mergers into China, an argument that the Court of Appeal of the District of Columbia recently supported and rejected a lawsuit by Tikok. The court emphasized that this was a measure that aims to protect the freedom of speech in the United States from foreign threats, such as reported.

tikkok fends off against the allegations and denies that user data is passed on to the Chinese government or content is manipulated in favor of China. In the lawsuit it was emphasized that no evidence of such data transfer was presented.

Future of Tiktok in the USA

The law stipulates that Tikkok must be sold up to the above date, since the platform, as it is currently, can no longer be accepted. If Tiktok does not complete this sales process in good time, the app could be banished from Apple and Google's stores. It is possible for President Biden to extend the sales period by three months if progress is observed in sales. However, the position of the Chinese government in relation to a possible sale remains uncertain, and what is happening with the platform under the future presidency of Donald Trump is also speculative because it spoke out against a ban in the election campaign. A final clarification of the legal situation is therefore still pending.
