HtS,
Did you mean like Trump issuing an executive order contradicting Congress's TikTok ban?
Personally, I am not a TikTok user, but I don't see why it should be banned or what the fuss is about. If TikTok requires unnecessary personal information to sign up, that could be addressed. But it's hard to imagine what important information the Chinese can supposedly glean. What's at risk, our strategic dance moves? Top secret cat videos?
NEW YORK (AP) — During his first term as president, Donald Trump led the effort to ban TikTok, the hugely popular video-sharing site he said posed a threat to U.S. national security. But on the eve of his return to the White House, the president-elect is being hailed as the app’s savior.
WASHINGTON (AP) — The Senate passed legislation Tuesday that would force TikTok’s China-based parent company to sell the social media platform under the threat of a ban, a contentious move by U.S. lawmakers that’s expected to face legal challenges and disrupt the lives of content creators who rely on the short-form video app for income.
A decision made by House Republicans last week to attach the TikTok bill to the high-priority package helped expedite its passage in Congress and came after negotiations with the Senate, where an earlier version of the bill had stalled.
