TikTok has resumed operations in the U.S. after being removed from app stores due to compliance with a law mandating its divestment. Initially suspended due to national security claims tied to its Chinese ownership, TikTok regained access following assurances from President Trump, who then postponed a ban to April 5. The app has a significant American user base and previously faced a temporary user shift to RedNote. Despite pressures, TikTok maintains its innocence against allegations of data sharing with the Chinese government and asserts that the divestment challenges user rights under the First Amendment.
TikTok has returned to the app stores of Apple and Google in the U.S., after President Donald Trump delayed the enforcement of a TikTok ban.
The popular social media app has over 170 million American users and briefly saw a migration to RedNote during its service suspension.
During Trump's first term, he supported banning TikTok but later changed his mind, suggesting that it could be jointly owned with American investors.
TikTok's legal stance argues that the divestment law violates the First Amendment rights of its American users.
