TikTok Goes Dark in the US Hours Before Ban Amid Government Demands and Legal Challenges | Details

TikTok has gone offline in the US hours before a ban enforcing its removal takes effect.

US users were greeted with a message citing legal restrictions, while the app disappeared from Apple and Google stores.

ByteDance, TikTok's parent company, failed to meet the government’s demand to sell its US operations.

As creators post farewell messages, millions await clarity on President-elect Trump’s promised 90-day reprieve, fueling debates about free speech and security concerns.

Trump Delays TikTok Deal, Dangles It Over China Tariffs | “We’ll Wait Till..”— Trade War Chess Match

U.S. President Donald Trump has thrown a wrench into the TikTok deal once again, signaling that the fate of the wildly popular app now depends on the outcome of ongoing U.S.-China trade negotiations. While markets reel from tit-for-tat tariff hikes, Trump says he doesn’t want tariffs to “go higher” — but won’t back down unless China plays ball. With 145% tariffs already imposed on Chinese imports and Beijing refusing to play the "numbers game," is this the end of the trade war—or just the beginning of something bigger? And where does this leave TikTok’s 170 million American users? #Trump #ChinaTariffs #TikTokBan #TradeWar #ByteDance #USChina #TrumpTikTok #TikTokDeal #Geopolitics #TechNews #TrumpNews #GlobalEconomy #TariffBattle #TikTokUSA #WhiteHouse Also Read Trump Considers Temporary Exemption from Auto Tariffs to Aid Car Manufacturers Amid Economic Challenges :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/trump-considers-temporary-exemption-auto-tariffs-011-4124041.html?ref=DMDesc Trump Dismisses General Tim Haugh from National Security Agency Amidst Congressional Concerns :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/trump-fires-general-tim-haugh-national-security-agency-011-4115013.html?ref=DMDesc Trump Warns Iran: Strike A Nuclear Deal In Two Months Or Face Unprecedented Bombing :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/trump-warns-iran-strike-a-nuclear-deal-in-two-months-or-face-unprecedented-bombing-4109797.html?ref=DMDesc ~PR.274~ED.194~GR.344~HT.410~
