White House lifts TikTok ban at government sites
The White House has lifted the ban on TikTok within government agencies, which was imposed in 2023 due to security concerns related to the Chinese-owned app. This decision came after a legal review by the Department of Justice confirmed that the application no longer falls under the list of prohibited apps, and that TikTok operates independently from the company ByteDance, with most of its ownership now held by American investors. An agreement was reached in January to transfer the management of TikTok's US operations to a coalition of American companies, aiming to avoid a ban under the law enacted in 2024 and to protect American users' data from potential access by Chinese authorities.
