Will TikTok be banned in the US on April 5? Trump says…

Popular video-sharing app TikTok found new lease of life (at least temporarily) as US President Donald Trump opted to delay a ban on the platform. Americans had been slated to lose access to cite by Saturday if parent company ByteDance does not sell its US assets to a non-Chinese buyer. Trump has repeatedly insisted that he is ‘very close’ to a deal with the involvement of multiple investors. US authorities have citied security concerns as the reason for banning TikTok — used by approximately 170 million people in the country.
