TikTok may soon vanish from US app stores if President Biden's administration does not provide definitive assurances against enforcing a ban. The Supreme Court ruled that TikTok's parent company, ByteDance, must sell the app or face a ban, with the deadline imminent. As the Biden administration prepares to hand over power, White House officials indicated that TikTok's fate may be left to President-elect Trump to negotiate. TikTok argues that without immediate clarity from the administration, it will have to cease operations on January 19, affecting over 170 million American users.
