TikTok CEO Thanks Trump for Commitment to Keep App Available for 170 Million Users Amid Supreme Court Ban
Jan 17, 2025, 06:39 PM
TikTok CEO Shou Zi Chew has publicly thanked President-elect Donald Trump for his commitment to finding a solution that would allow the app to remain available in the United States. This statement comes in the wake of the U.S. Supreme Court's decision to uphold a law that could lead to a ban on TikTok unless its Chinese parent company, ByteDance, divests its stake by January 19. Chew's remarks were made in a video message posted on TikTok, where he emphasized the importance of the platform for over 170 million American users and their First Amendment rights. Trump, who has used TikTok himself and generated over 60 billion views of his content, has indicated that he will review the situation before making a decision on the app's future. The Biden administration has deferred the enforcement of the ban to the incoming Trump administration, leaving the door open for potential negotiations.
