DeepSeek, the Chinese-owned ChatGPT rival, could pose the same national security concerns that Congress has about TikTok, Philip Elliott writes.

WASHINGTON (AP) — President Joe Biden won’t enforce a ban on the social media app TikTok that is set to take effect a day before he leaves office on Monday, a U.S. official said Thursday, leaving its fate in the hands of President-elect Donald Trump.

The Washington Capitals will continue to wear the logo of Chinese-owned social media platform TikTok on their road jerseys after a U.S. ban on the company was lifted.

A ban on TikTok went into effect as expected on Jan. 19, but the app was back online hours after TikTok stopped service in the United States.

We (sort of) answer the burning questions about TikTok, which is back online in the United States (sort of). TikTok is back online — sort of. But also it’s still banned. Huh? You probably have some questions about this whole thing with TikTok. I (sort of) have answers.

TikTok is warning of some wide-ranging consequences if the Supreme Court allows the law banning the video app to take effect on Jan. 19.

President Donald Trump on Monday said he would welcome a “bidding war” for TikTok as he appeared to confirm that Microsoft is among the companies that have declared interest in acquiring the popular social media platform. Trump told reporters aboard Air Force One he has an affinity for bidding wars.

The case was about whether the government could prevent The New York Times and The Washington Post from publishing ... defamation to treason to silencing TikTok — is unconstitutional.

During his first term as president, Donald Trump led the effort to ban TikTok, the hugely popular video-sharing site he said posed threats to U.S. national security.

Few expect Donald Trump to ease Biden-era limitations on China's ability to get advanced chips in the wake of DeepSeek's success.
