The U.S. Senate on late Tuesday handed a invoice that might result in a ban on TikTok until its Chinese proprietor sells the video-sharing social media platform.
U.S.-based CBS News reported that the invoice provides ByteDance, TikTok’s Chinese proprietor, 9 months to promote its stake, with the potential for a further three-month grace interval, or the app might be banned within the U.S.
It got here as a part of a broader legislative package deal that includes $95 billion in international support to Ukraine, Israel, and different U.S. allies within the Indo-Pacific area.
The House of Representatives already accepted the measure on April 20. President Joe Biden additionally mentioned that he’ll signal the invoice on Wednesday.
The invoice was handed amid suspicions that ByteDance might share information about U.S. customers with the Chinese authorities.
