TIKTOK PREPARING FOR U.S. SHUT-OFF ON SUNDAY
Summary from the TLDR newsletter
TikTok is planning to shut off its app for US users on Sunday. The federal law banning the app only mandates a ban on new downloads - existing users will still be able to use the app for some time. Users will see a pop-up message directing them to a website with information about the ban. TikTok plans to give users the option to download all of their data so they can take a record of their personal information with them.
