If no deal is reached, will TikTok be banned in the U.S. and what will this mean for millions
00:07
of influencers who make a living off this platform and users?
00:12
You said Trump could extend the fact that TikTok could carry on, but inevitably there
00:19
has to be a solution.
00:21
Right, so to be clear, TikTok is already banned, so the law was passed in 2024 and the law
00:27
is in effect.
00:28
So TikTok is already banned in the U.S., but what Donald Trump has done is he has deferred
00:34
enforcement of that ban, right?
00:37
So it's actually, the app is already illegal, but no one is being punished for use of the
00:43
app.
00:44
I think he will continue to extend the grace period where there's no kind of punishment
00:51
until he's actually able to close some kind of deal.
00:54
But what people have suggested from behind the scenes is that we are in fact getting
01:01
closer and closer to a deal, although it is far likely to be less tough on ByteDance and
01:07
the Chinese government than what was originally proposed.
