News India Live, Digital Desk: Deadline Extension: Former US President Donald Trump is once again in discussion. He has taken an important decision regarding Tiktok. Trump has extended Tiktok’s deadline for the third time for 90 days. This means that if the Chinese company wants to sell its Tiktok business in the US or finalize its deal, now they will have more time. This decision has come at a time when Tiktok is being accused of compromising on the National Security of America.
This is the third time Trump has Tiktok The deadline has been extended to any deal with American companies. Last month, the Trump administration banned Tiktok and its Chinese parent company Bitdance for selling or collecting data from American consumers. American officials believe that Tiktok is a threat to national security as its parent company can come under pressure from the Chinese government to give the data of American users to China, or can use their data incorrectly.
However, Tiktok has always denied these allegations and has been saying that he does not give the data of American users to the Chinese government and its servers are located in the US. In June this year also, the US government proceeded the matter. This happened when Donald Trump took over the presidential position and pressured Tiktok’s parent company Bitdance to sell his American unit. Since then, Tiktok is constantly talking to the government on the issue and is trying to prove that it is no threat to US national security.
It will now be interesting to see whether this 90 -day expansion opens a new path for Tiktok or the matter will again be under uncertainty. The decision came after Trump’s statement when he said that if the Chinese company fails to sell its American branch, it will take strict steps towards closing the app across the United States.
