Biden administration demands TikTok sale or faces nationwide ban.
TL;DR Summary
The Biden administration has demanded that TikTok's Chinese owners, ByteDance, divest their stakes in the app or face a possible ban due to concerns that TikTok's US user data could be passed on to China's government. This is the first time under the Biden administration that a potential ban on TikTok has been threatened. TikTok has more than 100 million US users and has already been responding to concerns through "transparent, US-based protection of US user data and systems, with robust third-party monitoring, vetting and verification."
