The US government called the Chinese app and its parent company Bytedance a threat to national security and asked for an immediate ban on it. At present, Tik-Tok has 170 million i.e. 17 crore active users. This app is said to be under the influence of the Chinese Communist Party, which may threaten America's national security. TikTok has been partially or completely banned in many countries of the world including India.
Under the new rules in America, TikTok can be banned from January 19. Bloomberg's report claims that TikTok's US unit could be in a deal with Elon Musk. There is a possibility of a deal between Tesla CEO and Bytedance regarding this. However, this has only been speculated in the report. At the same time, TikTok spokesperson has refused to comment, calling it a fabrication.

If Elon Musk buys the American unit of TikTok, then this app can avoid being banned in America.

TikTok will be banned under the new rule made under the leadership of US President Joe Biden. From January 20, American users will not be able to use this app.
