💨 Abstract

President-elect Trump plans to allow TikTok to operate in the US by executive order, requiring it to have at least 50% US ownership. The app stopped working for US users on Saturday before a ban took effect on Sunday due to national security concerns. The ban, passed by Congress, gives the Trump administration wide authority to ban or force the sale of other Chinese-owned apps. The app's future has sent users scrambling to alternatives.
