TikTok began restoring its services on Sunday (US time) after about 14 hours of shutdown.
TikTok’s lifeline came via an executive order signed by Trump on Monday in one of his first acts after taking office.
President Donald Trump signed an executive order Monday night that extended the deadline for compliance with the TikTok divestment law, an expected move that effectively halts the app’s shutdown in the United States for 75 days.
The executive order delayed implementation of the Protecting Americans from Foreign Adversary Controlled Applications Act, which took effect January 19 and would prohibit the distribution and updating of TikTok in the United States.
