Trump Delays TikTok Ban for 75 Days

U.S. President Donald Trump signed an executive order imposing a ban on the popular short video application TikTok for 75 days. Thus, the U.S. president signed an order that presents TikTok with a 75-day period to find a U.S. buyer to address the threatened prohibition of its funding source in the U.S. This gives the application a necessary respite. "The Chinese company ByteDance, which owns TikTok, has not been able to sell its American division to a non-foreign American buyer before the ban in the U.S.," it is reported.
