What are the key deadlines for ByteDance to divest its TikTok US operations?
US law requires China-based ByteDance to divest its TikTok US operations or face a complete ban in the country. Initially, then-President Joe Biden set a deadline of January 19, but this timeline was later extended by President Donald Trump, who pushed the deadline forward to April 5, giving ByteDance an additional 75 days to make a decision. This extension provides ByteDance with more time to determine how to comply with US regulations regarding TikTok's operations while addressing national security concerns raised by American officials about data privacy and potential misinformation risks.
