TikTok CEO Thanks Trump for Commitment to Keep App Available Amid Supreme Court Ban Threat
Jan 17, 2025, 06:31 PM
TikTok CEO Shou Zi Chew has publicly thanked President-elect Donald Trump for his commitment to finding a solution that would keep the app available in the United States. This statement comes in the wake of the Supreme Court's decision to uphold a law that could ban TikTok in the U.S. unless its parent company, ByteDance, divests its U.S. operations by January 19. Chew expressed gratitude for Trump's support, emphasizing the app's importance for free speech and its significant user base of over 170 million Americans. He highlighted that Trump's use of TikTok has generated over 60 billion views, underscoring the platform's role as a strong stand for the First Amendment and against arbitrary censorship. Trump has indicated that he will review the situation and make a decision on TikTok's future in the near future, following the Supreme Court's ruling. Chew is scheduled to attend Trump's inauguration on Monday.
