TikTok Goes Dark in the US Amid Trump-Driven Controversy

TikTok temporarily went offline for US users, sparking widespread confusion and speculation. The blackout comes as the company navigates an ongoing legal battle and political scrutiny, with its fate hanging on former President Donald Trump’s intervention. TikTok’s parent company, ByteDance, has been under pressure to sell its US operations over national security concerns tied to its Chinese ownership. This dramatic move may be a strategic attempt to spotlight the platform’s significance and urge resolution. While TikTok hopes for a favorable outcome, millions of users face uncertainty about the platform’s future in the United States.
