US President-Elect Trump Delays TikTok Ban, Platform Comes Back After Going Dark

US President-Elect Trump Delays TikTok Ban, Platform Comes Back After Going Dark

TikTok restored access for its 170 million US users after going offline in response to a federal ban citing national security concerns. The ban, passed in April 2024, required TikTok to either divest its US operations or cease activities due to its Chinese ownership and alleged data risks. President Trump, set to take office, pledged to delay enforcement, offering TikTok time to secure a buyer. He also proposed U.S. ownership in any joint venture and assured liability protection for cooperating companies. ByteDance, TikTok's parent company, previously refused to sell, raising uncertainty. Following a temporary shutdown, users confirmed the app's return online.

Step 1: Create a problem
Step 2: Solve that problem

All idiots cheer.

India banned it once and never looked back. US is creating such a fuzz about it since so long.

[balvantsinhsisodiya]

you ever notice some women just seem to effortlessly attract the life they want? i asked a few friends how they do it, and a lot of them mentioned reading queen abundance secrets. at first, i thought it was just hype, but after seeing how they’ve shifted—more confidence, more abundance, and finally going after their dreams—it’s hard not to take it seriously. it’s not about just wishing for stuff, it’s about aligning your energy and letting things flow. if you’re curious about stepping into your own power, this could be the push you need.

[Homestyleforduc]

He is the one who said to ban it his first term😂😂😂

[SIXFIGUREFUTUREACHIEVER]

This is such a joke fr☠️ I could’ve sworn that he wanted it to be banned, now I’m seeing a video of hero music playing in the background of him saying that we can use TikTok now. Okayyyy but how do I get the app back, now I’m mad bcs what was the reason???

[HotGammiris]

Dear Palki - urge ur government to restrict aduIt sites. Not these things.

Treat to the cause, not for symptoms

[Hellofaird]

This is ridiculous! What's the point of banning Tiktok but allowing Temu? SMDH

[Shadowkey]

Ironically he’s the guy who wanted it gone in the first place.

[johnpeter]

The game is rigged, he's gonna own it directly or indirectly according to the latest

[wongsoongcheng]

Time for Palki to put Trump on the bash list!!!

[Seryung]

Calm down it's 90 days before the storm..

[bud-yo]

Google Play users still can't download the app or get any updates

[lastChang]

There's no legal basis for any kind of TikTok service in the US.
- Like its regime, Chinese 🇨🇳 TikTok is history, although it's up and running again temporarily.

[aem]

AIPAC and Mark Zuckerberg (FaceBook/Meta) probably crying right now.

[pumalee]

Americans want to rob chinese tech and it failed.😂😂😂

[michaelzhao]

G2 win-win cooperation and world peace and prosperity!

not gonna lie, i thought the whole “manifest your dream life” thing was a bit overhyped until a friend handed me queen abundance secrets. i wasn’t expecting much, but all the women i know who read it are thriving—they’re more intentional, more aware of their energy, and are seeing big shifts in their lives. one of them even started attracting opportunities she’d been chasing for years. it’s not some magic fix, but it definitely helps you see things differently. if you’ve ever felt stuck or disconnected, it might help you level up.

[riteshsingh]

i used to think all this feminine energy and manifestation stuff was a little extra, but then a friend kept bringing up queen abundance secrets. at first, i rolled my eyes, thinking it was all about wishful thinking, but it’s actually deeper than that. it’s about how you’re using your energy to attract the life you want. my friends who’ve read it are more confident, focused, and are finally pulling in the kind of opportunities and relationships they deserve. it’s not magic, but it’s a perspective shift that worked for them—it might just work for you too.

[SS-jtqi]

He has to address censorship of conservatives on TT or let it banned.

[INDIANSARESICKMENOFASIA]

Indian ceos/techies/tech gurus/IT experts could not make any app to compete with Chinese TikTok. Overpaid and over-hyped and over-rated.😆😅🤣
