TikTok to Shut Down in U.S. on January 19, Impacting 170 Million Users, Unless Biden Intervenes
Jan 18, 2025, 01:41 AM
TikTok announced that it will shut down its app in the United States on Sunday, January 19, unless the Biden administration provides a definitive statement assuring that the ban on the app will not be enforced. The company stated, "Unless the Biden Administration immediately provides a definitive statement to satisfy the most critical service providers assuring non-enforcement, unfortunately TikTok will be forced to go dark on January 19." TikTok emphasized that current responses from the White House and the Department of Justice lack the necessary clarity for service providers such as Apple, Google, Amazon, and Oracle, which are essential for maintaining the app's availability to over 170 million active U.S. users. The company is urging the administration to provide the required assurances to prevent the app from going offline.
