President Trump has signed an executive order granting a 75-day extension to the TikTok ban in the U.S. This follows stalled negotiations for a deal transferring TikTok's U.S. operations to American ownership. While a near-deal was reached, China's response to new tariffs complicated matters. The extension allows for continued negotiations, though concerns remain about national security risks if ByteDance retains control of TikTok's algorithm. Legal experts question the legality of Trump's actions, and some creators express exhaustion with the ongoing uncertainty.
