TikTok says it will ‘go dark’ in US from January 19: Key details on looming ban

TikTok, the popular video-sharing platform, faces a potential shutdown in the United States on Sunday, January 19, unless the government offers clear assurances to service providers regarding their liability under a new federal law banning the app.

The US Supreme Court on Friday upheld the federal law, clearing the way for a nationwide TikTok ban. However, uncertainty remains about how the shutdown will unfold.
