TikTok Deal Moves Forward: New Algorithm or Brand-New App in the US?

The proposed TikTok deal in the United States has taken a new turn, with uncertainty surrounding the exact nature of the agreement. According to reports, American users may not have to download a brand-new version of the app, but rather, the existing TikTok app could be modified with a new algorithm. The deal, which involves Oracle and Walmart as potential investors, aims to address the U.S. government's concerns about national security and data privacy. However, the details of the agreement are still being negotiated, and it remains unclear whether a completely new app will be developed or if the existing TikTok platform will be transformed. The outcome of the negotiations will have significant implications for the future of the popular social media platform in the United States. Both TikTok's parent company, ByteDance, and the U.S. government are working to find a solution that satisfies all parties involved.
