TikTok halts service in U.S. amid ban; Trump promises to seek solution post-inauguration

TikTok became inaccessible for millions of users across the U.S. late Saturday, shortly before a ban initiated by a bipartisan law took effect on Sunday. The app informed users that they could not use TikTok due to this law and acknowledged President-elect Trump’s commitment to find a solution for reinstating the app after he takes office.

The message displayed on TikTok stated, “Sorry, TikTok isn’t available right now. A law banning TikTok has been enacted in the U.S. Unfortunately, that means you can’t use TikTok for now.” The company added that they are working to restore services swiftly and appreciated users’ support.

TikTok’s leadership suggested the ban forced the app to become temporarily unavailable. They noted that unclear statements from the Biden administration failed to provide necessary support for maintaining the service for over 170 million Americans. The White House indicated that enforcement of the ban would be Trump’s responsibility when he assumes office.

The U.S. Supreme Court upheld the law banning TikTok unless its parent company, ByteDance, sells the app by Sunday, citing national security concerns due to its Chinese ownership. Trump expressed intentions to review the ban and likely grant TikTok a 90-day extension.

TikTok’s CEO thanked Trump for his willingness to cooperate in resolving the issue, framing it as a victory for free speech against undue censorship.
