TikTok has received a 90-day extension from President Trump to separate from its parent company, ByteDance, in compliance with US regulations. This marks the third extension, following an initial deadline in January. The White House emphasizes that the goal is to allow American users to continue using TikTok securely. A range of bidders, including large tech companies, have shown interest in acquiring TikTok's US operations. Trump's administration is committed to facilitating a sale to ensure user data safety.
As he has said many times, President Trump does not want TikTok to go dark. This extension will last 90 days, which the Administration will spend working to ensure this deal is closed.
Over the past five months, a wave of bidders has emerged for TikTok's US business, including Perplexity AI, AppLovin, and, according to the New York Times, Amazon.
