TikTok ban: Although many US users have accessibility challenges, Donald Trump proposed a possible 90-day respite after the TikTok ban and encouraged people to "save TikTok" on his Truth Social platform.
TikTok ban: Since the TikTok app was banned on Sunday, January 19, many users in the US are already having trouble loading it. However, given his promise to "save" the Chinese video-sharing app, US President-elect Donald Trump appears to be in a race against time.According to the AP, Donald Trump issued an executive order on Monday delaying the US ban and urged tech companies "not to let TikTok stay dark."
On his Truth Social platform, Donald Trump stated in all uppercase, "Save TikTok."
Hours after declaring that he would "probably" grant TikTok a 90-day reprieve from prohibition, Donald Trump has made another appeal to "SAVE TikTok."
ByteDance, the parent firm of TikTok, has nine months until January 19 to sell the platform's US operations or face banishment. 170 million Americans use the Chinese video-sharing app, which was formally halted on Sunday.
In the US, a number of other ByteDance-owned apps have also stopped working.
How can TikTok be "saved" by Donald Trump?
According to Donald Trump, he will "probably" grant TikTok a 90-day reprieve from the ban, as reported by NBC News.
Trump told NBC News that if he moves forward with the extension, it will be completed on Monday. "The 90-day extension is something that will most likely be done, because it's appropriate," he said.
Under certain conditions, the law permits the president to give a one-time extension of up to ninety days with respect to the statute's effective date.
On Friday, January 17, Donald Trump also reported that he had spoken with Chinese President Xi Jinping about a number of topics, including TikTok. According to the BBC, Shou Zi Chew, the CEO of TikTok, is anticipated to attend Trump's inauguration along with other tech executives.

According to Erika Thompson, whose initial TikTok video garnered over 50 million views within the first day of its release, Instagram will not experience the same phenomenon. " For example, Thompson told the BBC, "I can post the exact same video on Instagram and get not even close to the engagement."
