Biden is proving to be quite hawkish on Chinese tech, and he might have the reason he needs to justify a ban.
All of which raises a question that had seemed mostly resolved since Trump left office: could TikTok be banned in the United States, period?Trump tried and failed to forcibly divest ByteDance of TikTok and hand it to one of his top fundraisers, Oracle CEO Larry Ellison.
Oracle will review both app codes, which determine the look and feel of TikTok, and server codes, which provide functions such as search and recommendations, according to the sources. The reviews will occur at dedicated “transparency centers” visited by Oracle engineers, with the first one scheduled to open in Maryland in January, one of the sources added.
A basic template for the deal was in place by August, a TikTok spokeswoman told me today. But the Biden administration has been slow to make a decision, as different government departments and agencies disagree about how to move forward, Reuters reported.
