TikTok Fights Ban as Trump Considers Sale Options

TL;DR Summary
In a recent interview, President-elect Donald Trump gave an unclear response regarding the future of TikTok in the US, suggesting that ByteDance, TikTok's parent company, should sell the app to avoid a ban. This comes after ByteDance's legal challenges against the ban were unsuccessful, and they now face a deadline to sell TikTok by January 19th. Trump, who previously supported a ban, hinted that a sale to an American company could prevent monopolistic growth in the tech industry.
