West Palm Beach, Florida (AP) – President Donald Trump said on Friday that he signed an executive order to keep Tijook working in the United States for another 75 days to give his administration more time to mediate an agreement to conclude the social media platform under US ownership.

Congress was imposed on the platform from China by January 19 or was banned in the United States on the basis of national security, but Trump has moved unilaterally to extend the deadline this weekend, as he sought to negotiate an agreement to keep it. Trump recently enjoyed a set of offers from American companies that seek to buy a share from the famous social networking site, but China, Petans, which has Tiktok and its close algorithm, insisted that the platform is not offered for sale.

“My administration has worked hard on a Tiktok rescue deal, and we have made tremendous progress,” Trump posted his social media platform. “The deal requires more work to ensure the signing of all the necessary approvals, which is why I expect an executive order to keep Tiktok and run for an additional 75 days.”

“We look forward to working with Tiktok and China to close the deal,” Trump added.

A spokesman for BYTEDANCE confirmed in a statement that the company is discussing a “potential solution” with the United States government, but indicated that “no agreement has been implemented.”

“There are major things that must be resolved,” the spokesman said. “Any agreement will be subject to approval under Chinese law.”

He said that Tiktok, which has a headquarters in Singapore and Los Angeles, said thatIt gives priority to the user’s safetyThe Chinese Foreign Ministry said that the Chinese government has never asked companies to “collect or provide data, information or intelligence” in foreign countries.

Trump’s delay in the ban is the second time that he temporarily bannedLaw 2024This has banned the famous social video application after the approved date for the disposal of getting rid of. This law was issued with the support of the two parties in Congress and unanimously supported the Supreme Court, which said the ban was necessary for national security.

If the extension continues in the Tiktok algorithm under the byteedance salad, these national security concerns continue.

Chris Pearson, CEO of cybersecurity and privacy protection platform, said that if the algorithm is still controlled by the violation, it is still “controlled by a company in a foreign national state, which can actually use these data for other means,” said Chris Pearson, CEO of Cyber ​​Security Protection and Privacy Privacy Platform.

“The main reason for all this is to control data and control the algorithm,” said Pearson, who served in the Privacy Committee of the Ministry of Internal Security and the Sub -Security Committee for more than a decade. “If none of these two things change, it will not change the basic purpose, and does not change the basic risks that are presented.”

The orders of the Republican Executive President stimulated more than 130 lawsuits in more than two months, he was in his position, but his order, which was delayed in a ban on Tijk, was barely born. None of these claims challenge his temporary collection of law prohibiting Tiktok.

The law allows a 90 -day suspension, but only if there is a deal on the table and an official notification of Congress. Alan Rostenastein, assistant professor of law at the University of Minnesota, said that Trump’s actions are violating the law so far.

Rozenshtein prompted Trump’s claim that delaying the ban is “extension”.

He said: “It does not extend anything. This is still simply an unilateral declaration.” “All he does is to say that he will not impose law for another 75 days. The law is still in effect. Companies are still violating by providing services to Tiktok.

“The risks of the national security posed by Tijk are still under this extension,” he said.

“Although they benefit from the extension,” said Vitos Sprehar, who runs the Tiktok Undertesknyws account, said that “they are concerned about Trump’s precedent that Trump has identified to direct the Ministry of Justice to the failure to enforce the laws approved by Congress.”

They said: “I would like to see a draft law that was passed to cancel the embargo, and end this back and forth once and forever.”

The extension comes at a time when the Americans are closely divided into what to do about Tijoc of what they were two years ago.

accidentPew Research Center surveyI found that about a third of the Americans said they had a ban on Tiktok, a decrease of 50 % in March 2023. Almost a third said they would oppose the embargo, and a similar percentage said they were not sure.

Among those who said they supported the embargo of the social media platform, about 8 out of 10 concerns were martyred that the security of user data is at risk as a major factor in their decision, according to the report.

Terrell Wadi, comedian, a representative and creator of content with 1.5 million followers on Tiktok under Hewadeempire, has been trying to develop his presence on other platforms since thenA ban was threatened in January.

“I am happy that there is an extension, but frankly, the passage of this process again feels a little exhausted,” he said. “Every time a new deadline appears, it begins to feel the real threat and more like the background noise. This does not mean that I ignore it, but it is difficult to continue to respond with the same urgency every time.”

He continues his profile on Instagramand YouTube And Facebook plus tiktok.

He said: “I hope we will get more clarity soon so that the creators like me and consumers can focus on other things instead of” What if “.
