Following the announcement in early April this year that TikTok’s US businessAdditional 75 days of retentionLater, when the grace period of the previously signed executive order was about to expire, the Trump administration once again issued a new executive order to grant TikTok's US businessAdditional 90 days of retention.
If we count from January this year, the Trump administration has given TikTok's US business three "life extension" opportunities, so that it will not be affected by the Biden administration's previous requirement of "ban or sell". Even now, the TikTok App has been restored to the App Store and Google Play Store in the United States.
A White House spokesman said earlier that US President Trump does not want TikTok to be completely shut down in the United States, so his US business will be allowed to remain for an additional 90 days, and this time can be used to find a suitable buyer and ensure that the American people can use TikTok services more safely.
However, compared to previous rumors that Amazon is interested in acquiring TikTok's US business and has already made relevant contacts, there are also American YouTuber "MrBeast", whose acquisition was funded by Roblox CEO David Baszucki, and the bidding team Project Liberty composed of Reddit co-founder and former Dodgers owner, and even Perplexity AI, an artificial intelligence startup that plans to integrate short videos into its services. It has also been rumored that it is interested in acquiring TikTok's US business.
