Many of us remember on January 19, the day Tiktok was erased from application stores before being reinstated approximately 12 hours later.
They told us that Tiktok had a new useful life of 75 days, and promised that an American buyer would soon approach the day.
But today, on April 4, it is 75 days after January 19, and we still have no agreement ended for one of the world’s largest social media platforms with more than 175 million US users.
Is Tiktok really being prohibited in the United States again?
No, Tiktok will not disappear from application stores, still
Although this initial grace period of 75 days, issued by the presidential executive order decree, has already passed, Tiktok is here to stay … For now.
The Trump administration has issued another executive order to keep Tiktok in US application stores for another 75 days, which makes the new deadline on June 18.
He explains in a publication about Truth Social: “My administration has been working very hard on an agreement to save Tiktok, and we have progressed greatly. The agreement requires more work to ensure that all the necessary approvals are signed, so I am signing an executive order to keep Tiktok in operation for additional 75 days.”

More importantly, the Bytedonce sent us its first public comment on the potential sale and, to be honest, it does not seem safer than what we hear from President Trump:

Governments, Rates and Tiktok
President Trump also touches the rates, which have recently been making waves as popular technological companies deal with the growing production and transit costs.
The anticipated orders of Nintendo Switch 2 were announced as delayed in the US. “In the midst of tariff uncertainty,” for example, and it is possible that the Chinese government is not interested in passing a sale with these strong current fines.
Trump explains: “We hope to continue working in good faith with China, whom I understand that they are not very happy with our reciprocal rates (necessary for fair and balanced trade between China and the United States!) This shows that tariffs are the most powerful and very important economic tool for our national security!”
Without a doubt, it is a rocky sea to sail, but at least we know that we have another 75 days of fatality moving in front of us.
