On the evening of Saturday local time, TikTok suspended its service to US users, and both Google and Apple removed it from their app stores for the well-known reason - Washington's "ban-or-sale" order under the guise of "national security." However, less than half a day later, TikTok restored some basic features on Sunday morning and issued a statement thanking Donald Trump for "providing the necessary clarity and assurance to our service providers."
