Technology War: TikTok are facing tremendous pressure!
The TikTok app is one of the most popular short video platforms owned by the Chinese company ByteDance. The current servers for this mobile application have been set up in the United States and Singapore. Recently, the app is about to close in the United States on the pretext of a national security risk. President Donald Trump threatened to ban the application altogether. However, TikTok's entire business in the United States is its last defense in terms of a possible deal with the country's other company Microsoft.
TikTok's database or servers are moved to the United States to keep U.S. citizens' information under U.S. control. Obviously when a political issue is associated with something, the so-called politicians no longer find an argument on anything. We have seen that there is no credible evidence to support the repeated allegations against TikTok! No one from the US administration provided any evidence.
Just as the US and Canada are dealing with the Chinese company Huawei. In the name of "national security protection". Ordinary people have not seen any evidence to support the allegations! Interestingly, there can be no witnesses in a 'trial without evidence'

President Trump's commercial adviser has publicly accused TiTok of stealing personal information of U.S. citizens and exchanging information with the Chinese government. But they did not give any evidence of this allegation. Surprisingly, although no allegations against TikTok have been substantiated, the United States has behaved terribly rudely. But the offensive behavior of the powerful institutions of their own country is not coming to the notice of the administration.
Many says that the only fault of the Tiktok is that it was born and originated in China. Huawei, ZTE and others have already been convicted for that.

It is unfortunate that what has happened, a political war for economic domination, is affecting many companies.
See you later, my friend. Greetings!
It is sad that this amazing company is going through so much just because they are from China and that is not really encouraging.
The United States and its double standards, they do the same through other platforms and applications, but as they saw that tik tok is a good investment now they want the power. Like many other situations, they're likely to get away with it.
Absolutely, your view may be true!
The government of the United States seeks at all costs to maintain its total hegemony, but it is impossible, in an increasingly globalized world, for more powers to emerge, with more strength, and will end up at some point being totally dethroned.
The way this going and the way the heavy pressure keeps mounting on tiktok, I don't see it been around for a longer period of time. How long can it sustain or stand is the question
