What will happen to the TikTok app in the US if it’s banned on Jan. 19?
A current law in place requires the video-sharing app to be sold by Jan. 19, otherwise it will be shut down. It could. Last April, a law passed by Congress and signed by President Biden set the deadline for TikTok’s China-based parent company, ByteDance, to sell off its United States operation, or the app would be banned across America.
