Hey everyone, big tech news alert! U.S. President Donald Trump is set to sign an executive order this week that extends the deadline for TikTok’s Chinese owner to divest the app. This marks the third extension, keeping TikTok alive while negotiations continue to secure its future.
White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt explained that the new 90-day window is meant to ensure TikTok doesn’t go dark—allowing American users to continue enjoying the platform with confidence in its data protection. Earlier, a 75-day extension was granted as plans to spin off the app under American ownership hit a snag.
For all the tech-savvy and social media fans out there, this move highlights how deeply intertwined tech and politics are today. With Trump even admitting he has a "warm spot" for TikTok, this saga is as unpredictable as a trending meme. Keep your eyes peeled and stay tuned for more updates—because in our fast-paced digital world, every day brings a new twist! 🔥📱
