    TikTok, the popular video sharing app, is encountering a government-ordered block in the US due to national security and privacy concerns over Chinese ownership. The block measures prevent downloading or updating the app for existing US users. Bytedance, the Chinese company that owns TikTok, argues this infringes freedom of speech and denies being a mouthpiece of the Chinese government, claiming user data is stored in the US and Singapore. Negotiations over partnerships with US companies like Oracle and Walmart to take over TikTok's global business remain uncompleted, leaving the app's future in the US uncertain.
