See: How TikTok ‘gone dark’ in the US
TikTok has gone offline in the US, hours before a new law banning the platform takes effect.
BBC News Tech Correspondent Lily Jamali explains what’s causing this and shows what happens now when you try to access the app.
It comes after the social media platform warned it would go “black” on Sunday unless the outgoing Biden administration guarantees the ban will not be enforced.
President-elect Donald Trump said after taking office on Monday that he would “most likely” grant a 90-day reprieve from the ban on TikTok, but it is unclear if the popular app will come to the United States.
