The US House of Representatives has once again passed a new legislation that may lead to a ban on Chinese short-video making platform TikTok in the country.
In March, the House voted in favour of a bill seeking to ban the popular social media platform TikTok which has more than 170 million users in the US.
The legislation in March required TikTok’s parent company ByteDance to divest its stake in the company within 180 days or six months of the enactment of the law. Failure to meet the deadline would bar TikTok from the Apple and Google app stores.
Instead of a six-month deadline, China-based ByteDance will now have about nine months to divest its stake.
