Douyin, the Chinese version of TikTok, is very different and "much more pro-social," NYU professor Jonathan Haidt told Business Insider in Davos.

The CEO of investment firm General Atlantic, a board member of TikTok's parent company, said on Thursday that he was optimistic that a deal to keep the short-video app operating in the United States would be agreed.

Pausing the enforcement of the TikTok ban was one of a slew of executive orders Trump signed on Monday.

United States President Donald Trump is seemingly using TikTok, a popular social media platform owned by Chinese tech company ByteDance, as a bargaining chip for Sino-US economic and trade relations, experts and market insiders said on Tuesday.

In his first few days back in office, President Trump is talking about TikTok entirely as a deal making exercise, dropping all of his previously expressed concerns about Chinese influence and American national security.

Donald Trump said he would impose high tariffs and further sanctions on Russia if it continued its "ridiculous war".

In a special episode of Left, Right and Centre broadcast live from the World Economic Forum (WEF) in Davos, American journalist Ben Smith discussed a wide range of issues, from US President Donald Trump's move to 'save' TikTok in the US to the war in Ukraine and Gaza.

An early payoff has already been scored by TikTok, the video-sharing app that spent months currying favor with the then-candidate Trump in hopes that if he won the election, he would help it survive a threatened shutdown.

Frank McCourt’s Project Liberty and other investors have submitted a bid to buy TikTok from China-based ByteDance after a court-ordered divestiture or shutdown.

A board member at TikTok’s parent company said that a deal to save the app from disappearing in the United States will be done soon.
