President Donald Trump orders TikTok owner to divest its U.S. operations within 90 days. The order cites national security concerns as well as the data that TikTok collects. ByteDance acquired Musical.ly, a music and lip-syncing app, and combined that app with its TikTok operations. The company has signaled that it would push back against the executive order, but some U.S. companies have expressed interest in buying the company’s U.K. operations. Microsoft has announced that it remains interested in making a deal.”]
