If you want to know what TikTok has been up to in the past few days buckle up because it is a whirlwind of political intrigue business maneuvers fresh trends and raw viral emotion. The biggest headline is without a doubt TikTok’s looming September 17 US deadline as pressure mounts from the Trump administration for ByteDance to sell TikTok’s US business to an American owner or risk a total ban. MarketWatch and MediaPost both ran major stories about the situation with MarketWatch reporting that President Trump appears ready to grant TikTok another delay citing stalled US-China trade negotiations. There is widespread speculation among analysts that TikTok will avoid the ban for now as Washington and Beijing massage broader trade deals using TikTok as a bargaining chip. Trump himself downplayed security concerns over the app in an August press scrum calling them highly overrated and even launched his own White House TikTok account last month. Still national-security hawks and think-tankers expressed alarm with one Hudson Institute fellow telling MarketWatch that allowing TikTok to operate in the US while controlled by Beijing is an unacceptable risk. As the deadline approaches TikTok is pulling out every stop to show its value to potential American owners and the public. This week TikTok released internal data about search ad campaigns on its platform, underscoring its commercial strength and its importance to brands especially as its future in the US market hangs in the balance according to MediaPost.
