Tik Tok representatives plead the US govt to continue the operation of the app

There has been a lot of discussions regarding Tik Tok and the USA. President Donald Trump’s ban on TikTok was momentarily obstructed by a federal judge, trading a blow to the government in its showdown with the prevailing Chinese-owned app it says endangers national security. US District Judge Carl Nichols gave a preliminary injunction against the ban on the widely used video-sharing network after an unusual Sunday morning hearing. The judge refused to grant an injunction against a November deadline for a sale.

TikTok’s owner, ByteDance Ltd., had urged the hold after the president ordered TikTok out of American app stores except the company sold a stake in its US operations to a domestic buyer. The ban, registered to go into effect at 11:59 p.m. in New York, would have eliminated TikTok from the app stores run by Apple Inc. and Google’s Android, the most extensively used marketplaces for downloadable apps. People who don’t yet have the app wouldn’t be able to get it, and those who already have it wouldn’t have access to updates needed to assure its safe and smooth operation. TikTok is used regularly by 19 million Americans.

Even as the sale of TikTok is still expecting final US support, two of China’s most prominent state-backed media mouthpieces last week denounced the deal. “What the United States has done to TikTok is almost the same as a gangster forcing an unreasonable and unfair business deal on a legitimate company,” the state-run China Daily wrote in a Wednesday opinion piece. Hu Xijin, the influential editor-in-chief of the Party-run Global Times, tweeted that Beijing likely wouldn’t approve the current agreement as it endangered China’s national security.
