Canada Orders ByteDance to Dissolve TikTok Technology Canada; Access to App Not Blocked
Nov 6, 2024, 10:47 PM
The Canadian government has ordered ByteDance to dissolve its subsidiary, TikTok Technology Canada, following a national security review. This decision, announced by the Innovation Ministry, does not include a ban on access to the TikTok app itself, meaning Canadians will still be able to use the platform. The move reflects ongoing concerns regarding national security associated with the popular Chinese-backed social media service. The dissolution of TikTok Technology Canada marks a significant step in the government's efforts to address these concerns while allowing continued access to the app for users.
