Defeated by Trump, the US government postponed the decision to ban Tik Tok

After the defeat of Donald Trump in the presidential election, the US government also temporarily postponed the decision to immediately ban the short video sharing application TikTok.

Although the US court had already stopped the government from banning Tik Tok, it was believed that on November 12, the US government would announce a new date for banning Tik Tok.

In September, the US government announced that TikTok will be banned in the US from November 12.

However, on October 31, the court of the US state of Pennsylvania stopped the government from imposing the ban from November 12.

And now the US government has also made it clear that Tik Tok cannot be banned immediately due to legal complications until the defeat of Donald Trump and the assumption of office by the new president and the government will follow the court decision.

According to the technology website TechCrunch, the Justice and Commerce Department of the United States clarified after the November 12 deadline that Tik Tok cannot be banned immediately.

According to the US government, the decision is being postponed due to legal and administrative complications until the newly elected president takes office.

The US government has not clarified when the final decision will be made on whether or not to ban TikTok, but it is now believed that the Chinese app will not be banned in the US.

In August 2020, Donald Trump called TikTok a threat to US national security and threatened it to sell its US assets to an American company, otherwise it would be shut down in the US.

Donald Trump initially gave TikTok a 45-day grace period, but it was later extended by another 45 days, after which TikTok challenged Donald Trump’s decisions in the US courts.

The American courts had suspended the decisions to ban Tik Tok in America and now the government has also made it clear that Tik Tok cannot be banned immediately due to legal complications due to the election of a new president.
