US Government Pushes TikTok Asset Sale Deadline Again

The long-suffering TikTok still can’t sell. It is worth recalling that talk about the sale of TikTok in the United States began in the summer of 2020 as part of the US government’s struggle for the “digital security” of the state. It was about storing a user database. According to government officials, the Chinese authorities may have used the data of ordinary citizens for the purpose of espionage. TikTok has denied such accusations until now. Because of this, in the United States, it was decided to close TikTok in the country, as an alternative to selling it to an American owner.

In the course of protracted legal proceedings, TikTok was ordered to sell assets in the United States, but negotiations dragged on, and because of this, the deadlines for the blocking were shifted. The ban was supposed to come into force on December 3, however, due to another appeal in court, the deadlines were postponed until December 28, 2020. It is possible that the Chinese representatives are counting on a change in the president and a change in foreign policy. In the meantime, TikTok continues to function fully.

TikTok is by far the most popular mobile application in the world, which was created primarily for smartphones. And if there is a desire to purchase a new device for the New Year, then it is best to look at the DNS directory.
