TikTok goes dark as U.S. ban takes effect
SUMMARY: As a federal ban takes effect, millions of TikTok users in the U.S. can no longer access the app, with its removal from major app stores and a shutdown of the service. Users receive a message stating “Sorry, TikTok isn’t available right now,” following a law passed by Congress over national security concerns regarding the app’s Chinese ownership. The ruling was backed by the Supreme Court, which authorized the ban, and President-elect Trump suggested a possible 90-day extension to negotiate TikTok’s future. Meanwhile, TikTok’s owner, ByteDance, faces pressure but has not confirmed plans to sell the app.
