TikTok Makes Shocking Comeback to App Stores After Controversial Ban!
For several years, TikTok has been under scrutiny due to its ownership by Chinese company ByteDance. The U.S. government, particularly during Donald Trump’s first term, raised concerns about TikTok potentially spying on and gathering data from American citizens. This concern led to an attempt to ban the app in 2020, but it wasn’t enforced until 2025. The U.S. government required TikTok to find a new American owner to keep operating within the country or face a ban. Unfortunately, TikTok didn’t meet this deadline and was banned on January 18th.
