Following the defeat of Donald Trump in the presidential election, the US government also temporarily postponed the decision to immediately ban the short video sharing application tik tok.
Although a US court has already barred the government from banning tik tok, it is expected that the US government will announce a new date on November 12 to ban tik tok.
In September, the US government announced that tick-tock talk would be banned in the United States from November 12.
However, on October 31, a court in the US state of Pennsylvania barred the government from imposing a ban on November 12.
And now the US government has made it clear that due to legal complications until the defeat of Donald Trump and the inauguration of a new president, tik tok cannot be banned immediately and the government will follow the court's decision.
According to technology website TechCrunch, the US Department of Justice and Commerce made it clear after the November 12 deadline that tick talk could not be banned immediately.
According to the US government, the decision is being postponed due to legal and administrative complications until the newly elected president takes office.
The US government has not said when a final decision will be made on whether or not to ban tik tok, but it is now thought that the Chinese app will not be banned in the US.
In August 2020, Donald Trump called tik tok a threat to US national security and threatened to sell his US assets to a US company or face closure in the United States.
Donald Trump initially gave tik tok a 45-day respite, but it was later extended for another 45 days, after which tik tok challenged Donald Trump's decisions in US courts.
U.S. courts have upheld the ban on tik tok in the United States, and now the government has made it clear that the new president-elect cannot immediately ban tik tok due to legal complications.
