The popular social network TikTok, owned by the Chinese company ByteDance, has sent an official message to its users in the United States confirming that the app is in the process of being restored. The company thanked elected President Donald Trump for his intervention in the negotiations and noted that he helped avoid additional sanctions on U.S. soil.
In a statement, TikTok expressed: "According to our service providers, TikTok is in the process of restoring service. We will work with President Trump on a long-term solution that keeps TikTok in the United States." This announcement suggests that the temporary suspension of TikTok may be related to negotiations between the company and the U.S. government.
According to information from El País, Donald Trump assured that he will issue an executive order for the social network to fully operate again in the United States after he takes office on January 20. Several users began sharing screenshots on social media confirming that they could access their TikTok accounts again, generating relief and excitement among the app's fans across the country.
Although the app has returned for some users in the United States, there is still no certainty about when it will be available steadily for everyone. The future of TikTok in the country remains uncertain, and negotiations between the platform and the U.S. government may continue due to concerns about user data security and privacy.
