TikTok denies link with Chinese govt

Popular social media platform, Tiktok, has denied links with the Chinese government.

The platform owned by ByteDance, a Beijing-based technology company, made clarification as it continues to battle its way out of a law that may affect its business in the United States.

The US President, Joe Biden, recently signed a bill that mandates TikTok‘s parent company, ByteDance, to sell the platform to a US-based entity by January 2025 or face a potential ban in the country.
