Joe Biden signed a bill into law that would require ByteDance to sell TikTok to a company qualified to offer social media services in the United States. They have until January 19, 2025, to make this happen. If they do not sell it by then, TikTok would be banned in the United States. This law resulted from a bipartisan effort to address the security threat that TikTok under ByteDance poses. This deadline could be extended by another three months if ByteDance proves that it is making good on its efforts to divest of TikTok.<\/p>\n

Under Chinese law, personal information related to TikTok accounts can be made available to the Chinese Communist Party. Additionally, TikTok is a propaganda tool for the CCP.<\/p>\n

“Rest assured, we aren’t going anywhere,” Chew said in a TikTok video after the Senate passed the bill and Biden signed it into law. “The facts and the Constitution are on our side, and we expect to prevail again.<\/p>\n

“While we make our case in court, you’ll still be able to enjoy TikTok like you always have,” he added.<\/p>\n

The bipartisan legislation is intended to address national security concerns related to TikTok’s data collection practices and the company’s ties to the Chinese government.<\/p>\n

Approximately 170 million Americans use TikTok, and the US accounted for about 25% of TikTok’s overall revenue last year.<\/p>\n

ByteDance has until January 19 to sell the application, the day before Biden’s term as President ends. However, the deadline can be extended by three months if the company proves it is making progress to sell the social media platform.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
