Trump Decides TikTok's Fate Under National Security Review

President-elect Donald Trump has asserted that the future of TikTok will be determined by him, following Congress giving him authority over the app. Despite this declaration, he has not provided specific plans regarding its fate, leading to uncertainty and speculation. The White House has indicated that TikTok should remain available to Americans, provided it is under American ownership to address national security concerns. As Trump's inauguration approaches, the Biden administration has decided not to enforce a ban that was set to take effect shortly after, leaving the decision to Trump. While Trump previously sought to ban the app due to its ties with China, he now seems inclined to reverse that stance, reflecting a shift in his position. The outcome of this situation will impact over 170 million American users of the app, especially among younger generations.
